Hadith 3

(The book) ‘Al Ghayba’ of the Sheikh Al Tusi – Ahmad Bin Ubdoun, from Abu Al-Hassan Muhammad Bin Ali Al Shujaie the scribe, from Abu Abdullah Muhammad Bin Ibrahim Al Numany, from Yusuf Bin Ahmad Al Ja’fary who said, ‘I performed Hajj during the year three hundred and sic and I was in the vicinity of Makkah in that year and what is after it, up to the year three hundred and nine. Then I went out from it, leaving to go to Syria. While I was in one of the roads, and the Dawn Salat had been missed by me, I descended from the carriage and prepared for the Salat. I saw four persons in a carriage. I paused wondering from them. One of them said, ‘What are you surprised from. You neglected your Salat and opposed your doctrine! ’ I said to the one who had addressed me, ‘And what is your knowledge of my doctrine? ’ He said, ‘You love to see Master-ajfj of your Time’. I said, ‘Yes’. He gestured to one of the four. I said, ‘Are there evidence(s) and signs for him? ’ He said, ‘Whichever is more beloved to you. To see the camel and whatever is upon it to ascend to the sky, or to see the carriage ascend to the sky? ’ I said, ‘Whichever of the two happens, it would be the evidence’. I saw the camel and whatever was upon it rising to the sky, and the man was gesturing to a brown man in it, and his colour was of gold, there was an (impact) of Sajdah between his-ajfj eyes’’. [3]
