Hadith 30

Tafseer Furaat Bin Ibrahim – Ali Bin Muhammad Bin Makhlad Al Jufy, transmitting from Al Amsh who said, ‘I went out as a pilgrim to Makkah. When I left and was far away, I saw a blind woman in the middle of the road saying, ‘By the right of Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws! Return my sight to me! ’
He (the narrator) said, ‘I was surprised from her words and I said to her, ‘Which right of Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws is there upon Allah-azwj? But rather, the right is for Him-azwj upon them-asws! ’
She said, ‘Shh, O depraved one! By Allah-azwj! He-azwj was not Pleased until He-azwj Swore by their-asws right. So, if there does not happen to be any right for them-asws upon Him-azwj, He-azwj would not have Sworn by it’. I said, ‘And in which place has He-azwj Sworn? ’
She said, ‘His-azwj Words: By your life (O Muhammad)! They were blindly wandering on in their intoxication [15: 72], and the (word ‘Al-Amr’) in the speech of the Arabs, is the life’. He (the narrator) said, ‘I fulfilled my Hajj (rituals), then I returned, and there she was, being with eyesight in her very place, and she was saying, ‘O you people! Love Ali-asws, for his-asws love would rescue you from the Fire! ’
He (the narrator) said, ‘I greeted unto her and said, ‘Weren’t you blind yesterday saying, ‘By the right of Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws! Return my sight to me! ’’ She said, ‘Yes’. I said, ‘Narrate your story to me’. She said, ‘By Allah-azwj! I had not moved until a man stood by me and said to me, ‘If you were to see Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws, will you recognise? ’ I said, ‘No, but with the evidence which he-saww had come to us’. She said, ‘While he was addressing me, when another man came leaning upon two men. He said, ‘What is your standing with her? ’ He said, ‘She has asked her Lord-azwj by the right of Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws to Return her eyesight unto her, so I am supplicating to Allah-azwj for her’. She said, ‘He supplicated to his Lord-azwj and wiped upon my eyes with his hand, and I became seeing. I said, ‘Who are you all? ’ He said, ‘I-saww am Muhammad-saww and this is Ali-asws. Allah-azwj has Returned your sight to you. Sit in this place of yours until the people return and let them know that the love of Ali-asws will rescue them from the Fire’’. [39]
