Hadith 398

(The book) ‘Ikmal Al Deen’ –
Muhammad Bin Ali Bin Ahmad Bin Rawh Bin Abdullah Bin Mansour Bin Yunus Bin Rawh, a companion of our Master-ajfj, Master-ajfj of the Time. He said, ‘I heard Muhammad Bin Al-Hassan Al-Sayrafi, the one staying at the land of Balkh, saying, ‘I intended the going out to the Hajj, and there was wealth with me, some of it gold, and some of it silver. I made whatever was with me of the gold, into ingots, and whatever was with me of the silver, into sheets, and that wealth had been handed to me to be submitted to the Sheykh Abu Al-Qasim Al-Husayn Bin Rawh, may Allah-azwj Sanctify his soul’. He (the narrator) said, ‘When I descended at Sarakhsa, I struck my tent at a place wherein was sand and went on to distinguish those ingots and the sheets. An ingot from those ingots fell from me and immersed in the sand, and I did not know’. He (the narrator) said, ‘When I entered Hamdan, I distinguished the ingots and the sheets once again, as a care from me with its preservation. I missed an ingot from it, its weight was of one hundred and three Misqals’ – or he said, ‘Ninety-three Misqals’’. He (the narrator) said, ‘I made an ingot from my own wealth with the weight of that ingot in its place between the ingots. When I arrive to the city of peace (Al-Kufa) I aimed for the Sheykh Abu Al-Qasim Al-Husayn Bin Rawh, may Allah-azwj Sanctify his soul, and I submitted to him whatever was with me, from the ingots and the sheets. He extended his hand from between the ingots to the very ingot which I had made from my own wealth to replace from what had been wasted from me. He threw it towards me and said to me, ‘This ingot isn’t for us. Our ingot was wasted at Sarakhs where you had struck your tent in the sand. So return to you place and descend where you had descended, and search for the ingot over there beneath the sand, for you will be finding it, and return here, but you will not see me’’. He (the narrator) said, ‘I returned to Sarakhs and descended where I had descended and found the ingot, and I left to go to my city. When it was after that, I performed Hajj and the ingot was with me. I entered the city of peace (Al-Kufa), and the Sheykh Abu Al-Qasim Bin Rawh, may Allah-azwj be Pleased with him had passed away, and I met Abu Al-Hassan Al-Samury, may Allah-azwj be Pleased with him. I submitted the ingot to him’’. [93]
