Hadith 340

(The book) ‘Al Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashub – Abu Baseer said, ‘I heard Abu Abdullah-asws saying: ‘And the mention of Al-Moalla Bin Khuneys flowed. He-asws said: ‘O Abu Muhammad! Conceal for me-asws what I-asws am saying to you regarding Al-Moalla! ’ I said, ‘I shall do so’. He-asws said: ‘But surely, he could not have achieved our-asws ranks except due to what he would be facing from Dawood Bin Ali’. I said, ‘And what is that which he would be afflicted with from Dawood? ’ He-asws said: ‘He would be called with, and he would strike off his neck, and crucify him, and that would be next year’. When it was the following year, Dawood became governor of Al-Medina. He called Al-Moalla and asked him about the Shias of Abu Abdullah-asws. He concealed it. He said, ‘Are you concealing from me? But, if you are concealing from me, I shall kill you! ’
Al-Moalla said, ‘It is with the killing you are threatening me? By Allah-azwj! Even if they were beneath my feet, I would not raise my feet from them (revealing them), and if you were to kill me, you will be making me happy, and you would be wretched! ’
When he wanted to kill him, Al-Moalla said, ‘Bring me out to the people, for there are many things for me, until I testify with that’. He brought him out to the market. When the people gathered, he said, ‘O you people! Be witnesses that whatever I leave behind from the wealth, a spring, or debts, or maid, or slave, or house, or little or more, so it is for Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws! ’ He was killed’’. [189]
Ibn Babuwayh Al Qummi in ‘Dalail Al Aimma Wa Mo’jizatihim’ – Abu Baseer said, ‘I entered Al-Medina and with me was a slave girl of mine. I attained from her, then went out to the bathhouse. I met our Shia companions, and they were heading to Al-Sadiq-asws. I feared them preceding me and the entry to see him-asws would be missed by me, so I walked with them until I entered the house with them. When I stood in front of him-asws, Abu Abdullah-asws looked at me, then said: ‘O Abu Baseer! Don’t you know that houses of the Prophets-as and children of the Prophets-as, the one with sexual impurity cannot enter them? ’
I was embarrassed and said, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! I met our companions and feared that the entry with them would be lost by me, and I shall never repeat to the like of it, ever! ’’[190]
And in the book ‘Al Dalalaat’ – From Al-Hassan Bin Ali Bin Abu Hamza Al Batainy, ‘Abu Baseer said, ‘I yearned for evidence of the Imam-asws, so I entered to see Abu Abdullah-asws, and I was with sexual impurity. He-asws said: ‘O Abu Muhammad! Whatever was for you, regarding what you were busy in, you are entering to your Imam-asws while you are with sexual impurity! ’
I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! I did not do it, except deliberately’. He said, ‘Or and you do not believe? ’ I said, ‘Yes, but (it was) to reassure my heart’. He-asws said: ‘Arise, O Abu Muhammad, and wash! ’ – the Hadeeth’’. [191]
