Chapter 1

PREFACE

Imam Sadiq (pbuh) is a great academic personality which the human history has come to know. He has advanced this great colossal (amount) of constructive and effectual contributions, in the interest of service to humanity and the building of civilization. Such as, and indeed he has [contributed to], bettering off the Islamic intellect by means of what he propogated of the kinds of sciences full of fundamentals of life. And in addition to that, the brilliant intellectual treasures, and that which is considered to be the pillar of the academic revival to his era. So the Imam (pbuh) has left for us a collection of the visions transmitted from him regarding his interpretations of dreams. So that there is [a book] by Imam Sadiq (pbuh) of Dream Interpretations specifically by him, that is circulating among the people and to a nearby age.

And the reality is that a book specific for this subject was not provided by the Imam (pbuh). Rather it was upon our gathering of visions ascribed to the Imam, we discovered a large collection from these visions in the book (Ta’ateer AlAnam) by Nablusi, and of which the author backing [the chain of narrations] is Imam Ja’afer AlSadiq is from a book ascribed to him called (Biltaqseem(By Distribution)). And the author cites in his book: (And I have accredited) concerning that upon the foremost books and the respected Sheikhs’ views such as: Essentials by Daniel AlHakeem, and the book the Distribution by Ja’afer AlSadiq, and the book the Compilers by Muhammed bin Seereen.

And we cherish the reader when we place before you this book that we ask our Master, Praise and Glory to Him, to grant the good of His acceptance. And lastly our supplication is that all praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds.

Chapter 2

ETHICS OF SLEEP

Mentioned from Imam AlSadiq (pbuh) is several of ethics and acceptable practices which have a great significance in the world of visions. As well as [having] a large impact in the validity of the vision’s expression. And [they have a large impact in] denialing the tremors of demonic whisperings. From these acceptable practises and ethics are:

1. Regarding the self: Indeed cited from him (pbuh) is that he had said in the following: (When midday arrived he said [to me]: “O Ibn Adam, work good in your day, I testify of it for you near your Lord at the Day of Judgement. Thus I have not come to you in what has passed, nor will I come to you in what remains”. And when the night arrived, he said the same as that) (1).

2. Teeth cleaning: (if the people knew what [benefit] is in the tooth-cleanser, they would lodge it overnight in their bedcovers).

3. Ablution(Wudhu’): (Whoever performs ablution then retires in his bed, he spends the night with his bed as his mosque) (2). Similar to was transmitted from him (pbuh) in that he said: (If a person wanted to see a truthful vision, whatever is on his conscience is shown to him [if] he sleeps in the state of ablution, on his right side and he remembers Allah) (3).

4. The Du’aa when lying down: So whoever says three times when getting into his bed (All praise is for Allah Who is the Most High so He subdued, and all praise is for Allah Who is hidden so He informed, and all praise is for Allah

(1) Language of the respected shia, ‘Asfoor Muhsin, library of Legislation, Kuwait print1986, page38. (2) (3) the previous reference, page39.

Who is the King so He predetermined, and all praise is for Allah Who enlivens the dead, and deadens the living and He has power over everything, He takes out from the sins in the same manner of the day the originator gave rise to it) (1).

Another Du’aa: If you retire in your bed, then lie down on your right side, and say: (In the name of Allah, and by Allah, and for the sake of Allah, and upon the creed of the Messenger of Allah, O Allah I have submitted myself to You, and turned my face to You, and have entrusted my affair to You, and have sheltered my back wishingly to You, of awe to You, there is no shelter nor rescuer from You except [returning] to You, and have submitted myself to You, O Allah I have believed in every book You have sent down, and in every messenger You have dispatched) (2).

5. Reciting the Quran: he (pbuh) said: (there is no servant that recites [surat] AlKahf when going to sleep except that he wakes up in the hour which he wants [to wake up in]) (3).

6. Seeking refuge to repel wet dreams: Of what was mentioned from him (pbuh) is that he said: Whoever feared [going into the state of] Janaba(sexual impurity), then he should say in his bed: (O Allah I seek refuge in You from wet dreams, and from the association of dreams, and from the Devil manipulating me during wakefulness and sleep), afterwards he should recite the All-Mighty’s saying: {Say: Who can protect you in the night and in the day from the All-Merciful?} (4).

Afterwards he should recite the last [2 verses] of [surat] Bani Israel: {Say: Invoke Allah or invoke the AllMerciful, whichever you invoke Him (it is the same), then for Him is the best names, and do not announce your salat nor lower your voice in it but follow a way between those, and say: all praise is for Allah who has not taken a companion, nor a child, and there is no partner for Him in the dominion, and there is no helper for Him from lowness, and magnify Him with a magnification(takbeera)} (5). (Note: this is surat israa’)

(3) the previous reference, page43.

(4) Surat AlAnbiya’(the Prophets), verse 42.

(5) Language of the respected shia, page 57.

7. Seeking refuge to be secure from falling out of covers: he (pbuh) said: (Whoever writes surat Muhammed and hangs it on himself will be secure in his sleep and his awakeness) (1).

8. Dispraise of the increase of sleep and its reason: he (pbuh) said: (indeed Allah (the Mighty and Majestic) dislikes much of sleep, and much of spare time) (2).

And mentioned from him (pbuh) is that he said: Much of sleep is gilded to the religion and the dunya (3).

And from his (pbuh) recommendations to the servant of Allah Ibn Jandib: “O Ibn Jandib, lessen the sleep in the nighttime, and the words in the daytime, hence there is nothing less thankful in the body than the eye and the tongue. Verily Um Suleiman said to Suleiman: “O my son beware of sleep, because it impoverishes you of time which people need for their work”. O Ibn Jandib verily the Devil has traps by which he entraps so guard against his nets and his traps (4).” Then [Ibn] Jandib said: “O son of the Messenger of Allah, and what are they?” He replied: “As for his traps then it is turning away from being kind to the (muslim) brothers.. As for his nets then it is sleeping away from carrying out prayer which Allah has obligated. As for him not worshipping Allah, it is in the example of the moving of feet until the ground of the (muslim) brothers and visiting them. Woe to the absentminded ones regarding the prayers, the sleeping ones in mocking idleness at Allah and His signs in udders, those are the ones who are not worthy of being in the hereafter, nor will Allah speak to them on the Day of Judgement, nor will He clear them and for them is a painful punishment (5).

And in another narration he (pbuh) says: (There is no worshipper but that he awakens in every night once or twice or frequently, so if he rises he will be as he was, otherwise [if he goes back to sleep] the Devil will pay him a pilgrimage and then urinate in his ears, or does not one of you see that if he rises he is not the same as the one who does not rise and is thickened (6) heavy and sluggish (7).

(4) To guard against something: to avoid it and to be careful of it.

(5) Language of the respected shia, page 57.

(6) AlFais (ra) said about Mutakhathir(thickened) – [he comments about the abnormal word structure] – and in some transcripts the word is:

And of the reasons which result in excessive sleep, he (pbuh) says: (And excessive sleep arises from excessive drinking, and excessive drinking arises from excessive fullness (of food) and they both encumber the soul away from obedience, as well as harden the heart away from contemplation) (1).

And from his (pbuh) hadith, regarding the onset of Adam’s sleep after he went up on the platform/pulpit and taught the Angels the Names, he (pbuh) said: (Adam descended from his platform and Allah increased his good-doing in multiples more than what he had from good and grace, so when he came down He brought near him picked fruit of white grapes. He ate it and it was the first thing he ate from the food of Heaven. When he had taken it he said: “All praise is for Allah the Lord of the Worlds”. Allah the All-Mighty said: (O Adam it is for this I created you and it is the Sunna of your Prophet toward the last era). Subsequently slumber overtook him i.e. sleepiness because it is the origins of sleep. For there is no rest for a body that eats except sleep. The Angels panicked and said: “Sleep is death!” So when Satan heard, may Allah curse him, that Adam (pbuh) had eaten he became joyful and took comfort of what was in it, and he said: “I shall tempt him”) (2).

Chapter 3

THE VISION'S TRUTH/VERITY AND IT'S SEGMENTS

In the Imam’s (pbuh) definition of the vision he says: (Verily if the believers took to their beds, Allah raises their souls toward Him. So whoever He ordained death for, Allah positions him in the Gardens of Heaven by the Light of His Mercy and the Light of His Glory. And if He did not ordain upon him death He sends them (the souls) in the company of His trusted ones from the Angels [back] to the bodies in which they were in (1).

Also the Imam (pbuh) was questioned about the truth of the vision: (The believer sees the vision, then it [could be] as he saw, but perhaps he sees a vision, but it means nothing?” So he (pbuh) replied: “Verily if the believer rested, outstretched/elongated activity emerges from his soul to the Heaven. So whatever the believer’s soul sees in the Kingdom of Heaven about a matter of preordainment and planning then it is the truth.. And whatever it sees regarding the earth then it is a confused dream.” – then the questioner said: “Does the believer’s soul ascend into the heaven[i.e. completely]?” So he (pbuh) replied: “No. If all of it emerged until nothing remains from it then he (the person) has died”. So he asked: “So how does it emerge?” So he (pbuh) said: “As for you seeing the sun in the sky with its location, its illumination, and its rays at the earth; then likewise the soul’s origin is in the body and its movement is outstretched/elongated”) (2).

Also Abu Baseer asked Abu Abdullah (pbuh): (The sleeping man here, and the sleeping woman both see visions. Further, they are at Mecca and at Egypt of regions [respectively], [so are] their souls outside of their bodies?” He said: “No, O Abu Baseer, so indeed if the soul separated from the body then it will not return to it. Yet it is at a [similar] standing to the Sun’s eye which is centralised in the sky’s center, while its rays are in the world/dunya.”) (1). [i.e. the soul is centralised in the body and stretches outwards]

(1) Dar AlSalam/ AlTabrisi/ vol4, page 241.

(2) The previous reference, pages243, 244.

He (pbuh) also said: (By Allah there is no servant from our followers(shia) that sleeps without Allah raising his soul toward the heaven and then blessing it(the soul). So if its term has already been completed He places it in the treasures of His Mercy, and in the Gardens of His Heaven and in the shade of His Throne. And if its death was later, He sends it with one of His trusted from the Angels to return it to the body which it emerged from so that it resides [back] in it) (2).

Regions of the Vision: he (pbuh) said: (The vision has three sides/facets: good news from Allah to the believer, an exhortation from the devil, and confused dreams) (3).

As for the vision of the believer then he says: (If the worshipper was pursuant to a sin/wrong doing [to] Allah (Praise and Glory be to Him), and Allah wants for him good (then) He shows him in his sleep a vision which scares him so he is deterred away from the sin by it. And indeed the truthful vision is a seventieth part of prophethood) (4).

The difference between the truthful and the lying vision

He (pbuh) said: (The truthful and the lying vision have one gate/exit. Meaning the heart. So the inconsistent lying vision is the one which is seen by the person in the beginning (part) of his night from the disobedient dissolute authority. And moreover it is something that befriends the person, and it is inconsistent and lying and there is no good in it. As for the truthful one, if he sees it(the vision) after the two thirds of the night [which is] with the advent of the angels, and that is before Sahar(early dawn – small period before fajr) then it will be a truthful consistent vision unless he was in the state of sexual impurity(janaba) or he sleeps in an unpurified manner, and that he didn’t remember Allah the AllMighty, then [in such] it would differ and linger against its owner (1).

(4) Bihar AlAnwar/ AlMajlisi/ vol61, page167.

He (pbuh) said: (Verily Satan has an assistant that he dismisses when the night arrives for the purpose of anointment(تمريخ) to fill up whatever is between the pulsating ones[this might be the soul pulsating while asleep?]) (2).

Also in his (pbuh) words, in which he addresses Muffadel’s monotheism, he says: (Consider, O Muffadel, how is the matter administered within dreams, thus their truthful (dream) stands out. By their lying (dream), thus if they(the dreams) were all truthful (then) truly all people would have been prophets, and if they were all lying (then) there would not have been any benefit in them, rather they would have been favors without a meaning, thus they became truthful only occasionally so that by them people can benefit in a use that guides because of them, or a harm that cautions from them, and (the dreams) lie frequently in order that one does not depend on them with complete dependency (3).

Also in his (pbuh) explanation(tafseer) to the noble verse: {Indeed secret conversation is from the devil in order to aggrieve those that believe} (4) he (pbuh) said: (The reason for bringing down this verse was that Fatima (pbuh) saw in her sleep that the Messenger of Allah (pbuhahf) was worried that he, Fatima, Ali, Hassan, Hussein (pbut) would need to leave Medina. So they travelled until they crossed one of the walls of Medina. Then they were faced with two ways. The Messenger of Allah (pbuhahf) took the right-sided one until he led them to a location which had date palms and water. Then the Messenger of Allah (pbuhahf) reached a female sheep of great size, and one of its ears was completely white so he commanded to sacrifice it. When they were eating they (suddenly) died in their place. Fatima (pbuh) woke up in terror. She [decided] not to inform the Messenger of Allah (pbuhahf) of that (vision). Then when she got up, the Messenger of Allah (pbuhahf) arrived on a donkey. He then mounted upon it Fatima (pbuh) and commanded the Prince of the Believers, Hassan and Hussein (pbut) to leave.

(4) Surat AlMujadala(the debate), verse 10.

Medina [together]; just as Fatima (pbuh) had seen in her sleep. When they left through the walls of Medina, they faced two ways. The Messenger of Allah (pbuhahf) took the right-sided one, just as Fatima (pbuh) saw (in her dream), until they reached a location which had date palms and water. Then the Messenger of Allah (pbuhahf) purchased a female sheep of great size, just as Fatima (pbuh) had envisioned. Then he commanded to sacrifice it, so it was slaughtered, and roasted. Then when they wanted to eat it, Fatima (pbuh) stood up and she gave up, mournful for them, crying in fear that they die. Then the Messenger of Allah (pbuhahf) requested to find out why she is crying with saying: “What is your concern O my daughter”. She said: “O Messenger of Allah I saw such and such in my sleep, and you have acted like what I saw [in the dream]. Thus I abandoned you so that I do not see you all dying”. So the Messenger of Allah (pbuhahf) stood up and called out to the devil by saying to him: “Did you show Fatima this vision?” He replied: “Yes, O Muhammed”, then the Messenger of Allah spat on him three spits, thus he fractured him in three locations. Then Jibrael said to Muhammed: “Say O Muhammed, if you see in your sleep a thing that you hate, or (if) one of the believers sees (such), then the person should say: “I seek refuge with Whom was sought refuge of by Allah’s Close Angels, His sent Prophets and His righteous servants from the evil of what I saw, and (I seek refuge) from my vision” and to recite Alhamd (Surat Fatiha) and AlMu’adtien, and {say He Allah is One} (Surat Ikhlas), and to spit on your right side three spits, then indeed what he saw will not hurt him”. And (then) Allah descended (the verse) upon His Messenger: {Indeed secret conversation is from the devil} (1).

Chapter 4

WHAT SHOULD BE DONE TO SEE WHAT IS DESIRED TO BE SEEN (IN THE VISION)

1. Of what was mentioned from the Imam (pbuh) about whoever wanted to see the Noblest Prophet (pbuhahf) is that he said: (Whoever persistently recited Surat AlMazmal sees the Prophet (pbuhahf) and asks him whatever he wants, and Allah gives him whatever he wants of blessings). And from him (pbuh) is a narration in that he said: (Whoever recited Surat AlQadr after the midday prayer (Salat AlZowal), and before Dhuhr twenty one times he will not die till he sees the Prophet (pbuhahf)) (1).

2. Also in another narration he said: (Whoever awaits/expects someone that is coming to him and wants to know his news then he should write these letters on his palm and [then] go to sleep. Thus indeed some of the souls/spirits will come to him, then all of what he asked about him will be answered. [The Letters are:] In the name of Allah bihat, hat, fahat, lehat, lahat (cant translate these)) (2).

3. And in a narration [relating] to Fatima the daughter of Abdullah bin Ibrahim bin AlHassan who said: When AlDuwaneeq killed Abdullah bin AlHassan, after having killed his filial [relatives] Muhammed and Ibrahim, he took my son Dawood bin AlHassan from Medina to Iraq, shackling him in iron with his uncle’s son AlHussein. Then he(her son) became far away from me for a period of time, and over there he was imprisoned, thus news of him was cut off [from me]. I was baffled of his trace and was supplicating to Allah and beseeching Him, and requesting of Him for his deliverance and asking for help from my brothers of the ascetic and the people, and the people of ancestry?, and [the people of] jurisprudence. I asked them to supplicate to Allah for me to be reunited with my son before my death. They did [such of supplications] and they did not neglect in [doing] that.

(1) Balgh Alshia AKaraam, page197.

(2) Ibid, pages 213, 214.

And he used to communicate that he has killed?, and the folk say: “no descedants have records of him with his uncle’s descendants”. Thus my trouble increased and my grief intensified. I did not see a response to my supplication nor [a solution] arising to my problem. So I became powerless therewith. I grew in age. And my bones became thin. I came to the border of despair from [seeing] my son because of my weakness and my elapsing age.

She (Um Dawood) continued: Then I came to Abi Abdullah Ja’afer bin Muhammed (pbuh). So when I asked him how he was doing and prompted him that I intended to leave, he said to me: “O Um Dawood, who is it that has informed you about Dawood? While you had breast-feed Ja’afer bin Muhammed [together] with his milk?” Thus when he mentioned him to me I cried then said: “May I be your ransom, where is Dawood? Dawood was imprisoned in Iraq, and his news had been cut off. I have lost hope of meeting him while I am truly intensely longing for him and anxious about him. I request of you to pray for him because he is your brother from nursing.” Then Abu Abdullah (pbuh) said to me: : “O Um Dawood, so where are you from [supplicating] the Supplication(Dua’a) of Opening, Reponse, and Prosperity? This Dua’a is the one with which Allah (the Mighty and Majestic) opens the doors of the heaven for the supplicator. The Angels obtain and bring him the good news of a response. And it is the Answered Supplication which does not come between Allah (the Mighty and Majestic) and its owner (the supplicator) as a recompense without Paradise.

She (Um Dawood) continued: I said: “And how is it for me [to know], O son of the Truthful Purified Ones?” He said: “O Um Dawood, indeed this Haram month has approached [and the supplication] requires the month of Rajab (lunar calendar month). It is a celebrated, grand and holy month in which a supplication is heard. Thus, pray the three days 13th, 14th and 15th from Rajab, as these are the White Days. Then wash yourself (Ghusul) at the middle day of them, at midday of the sun. Then pray eight rak’aats at midday; forwarding within them well-done bowings, prostrations and Qunuts. In the first Rak’aa recite Fatiha of the book (i.e. Surat Fatiha), and {Say: O You Disbelievers} (Surat Kafiroon). In the eighth recite {Say: He is Allah, One} (Surat Ikhlas). In the remaining six (rak’aats) recite what you like from the short suras. Next, pray Dhuhr. Then bow [again] after Dhuhr [another] eight bowings(rak'aats) with the bowings, prostrations and qunuts done well. Let your prayers be in your cleaner clothes in a spotless house and use perfume. Indeed the Angels love that [i.e. such conditions]

And try hard to [make sure that] no one comes to you to talk to you or occupy you. Then when you finish from the Supplication, prostrate unto the earth and cover your cheeks with dust and say: “To You I have prostrated and in You I have believed. So have mercy on my lowliness, my neediness and my missteps [which is] to my direction.” And try hard to make your eyes flow tears even if it’s the amount of a housefly’s head. Because a sign of a response to this Supplication is the sorrow of the heart and the shedding of a teardrop. Afterwards, be aware that [the matter] will emerge from your hand/control and into someone else’s hand; [someone] who calls for other than the truth for him. Thus it is an honourable Supplication. It contains the greatest Name of Allah which, if supplicated by, Allah will answer [the supplicator] and give him [what he wants]; even if the heavens and earth were patched [together] without the oceans entirely. And [if] all of such was between you and your wanted need, then certainly Allah (the Mighty and Majestic) will ease the arrival of what you desire. And will give you your request, meet your need and cause you to attain your hopes; as well as to each who supplicate to AllMighty Allah by this Supplication of Response whether male or female. Even if the Jinn and Mankind were enemies to your son, certainly Allah suffices you [from] their supplies; and silences their tongues from you. And that you would have their necks, if Allah the AllMighty wills.”

Um Dawood continues: Thus he wrote this Supplication for me and I waited at my home. Then came the month of Rajab, and I had in my mind the days [of the Supplication]. So I fasted and supplicated in them just as he instructed me. And I [also] prayed the Maghreb, ‘Isha and the rest while being devoted. Afterwards, I prayed through the night [for as long as] what was possible for me. Then settled for the night, and saw in my sleep all of whom I Prayed for - from the Angels, the Prophets, the Testifiers, the Ibdaals and the worshippers. I also saw the Prophet (pbuhahf). And Behold, he said to me: “O woman, O Um Dawood, Rejoice! For all of whom you see from your helpers and brothers and sisters are seeking for your forgiveness and bring you good news of the success of [gaining] your need thing. Rejoice in the pardon and satisfaction of Allah for you have profited well for yourself. Rejoice also that Allah has protected your son, and will return him to you if Allah so wills.

Um Dawood continued: I then woke up from my sleep. By Allah, I did not remain still after that except for the distance of the course [that I took] from the diligent hurried rider to Iraq, till Dawood was shown to me. Thus he said: “O my mother, I have been imprisoned in Iraq in the narrowest of cells.

And the weight of Iron was upon me. I was in the state of despair from being freed. And suddenly when I went to sleep in the night of the middle day of Rajab, I saw the earth had been scaled down for me till I saw your prayer mat. And around it were men with their heads in the sky and their legs on the ground. They had green robes/clothing and were Glorifying [Allah] around you. Then a speaker spoke. I believe he had the face characteristic of the Prophet (pbuhahf), spotless in clothing, pleasant in smell and good in words. [he said]: “O Son of the righteous Elderly Woman, rejoice! For indeed Allah (the Mighty and Majestic) has answered your mother’s Supplication.” I woke up, and Behold, I was with Abi AlDawaneeq’s messenger. Thus I was admitted to him out of the night. He then ordered for the detachment of my iron and [for others] to be kind towards me. He also ordered 10,000 dirhams be given to me, that I be held [on record] as being of noble descent and for me to strive for the hardest of courses. Then I hurried to enter Medina and proceeded to Abi Abdullah (pbuh).” Consequently he(Dawood - who was previously talking) greeted him(the Imam) and narrated his story. Then AlSadiq (pbuh) said to him: “Verily Abi AlDawaneeq saw Ali (pbuh) in his sleep telling him: “Release my son or else I will throw you into the Fire”. He also saw (in his dream) as if there were flames beneath his feet. He then woke up, was at loss [to what has happened] and released you.” (1).

DREAMS OF MIRACLES ASSOCIATED WITH IMAM ALSADIQ (PBUH)

1. From Ahmed bin AbiAbdullah AlTabrisi, from his father, who said: I was informed by one who heard Janaab bin Sadeer, who said: “I saw the Messenger of Allah (pbuhahf) in what a person usually sees during sleep (a vision). He had a plate covered with a napkin in his hands. I came closer to him and greeted him; so he greeted me back. Aftwards, he lifted the napkin from the plate, revealing ripe dates on it. He then began eating from it. So I came closer to him and said: “O Messenger of Allah, pass me a date.” So he passed one date to me. I ate it then said: “O Messenger of Allah, pass me another [one].” So he passed it to me and I ate it. Thus every time I ate one, I asked for another. Until he had given me 8 dates. After eating it(the eighth date), I asked of him another. Consequently he said: “That [many] will suffice you.” Then I woke up from my sleep. The following day I went to Ja’afer bin Muhammed AlSadiq (pbuh). There was a plate covered in a napkin in his hands, like the one in the Messenger of Allah’s hands (pbuhahf) that I saw in my sleep. I greeted him and he greeted me back. Next he uncovered the plate and there were ripe dates on it. He then started eating. I was amazed by that and said: “May I be your ransom, pass me a date.” So he handed me [one] and I ate it. [This continued] until he had given me the eight dates. After that I requested another from him, but he said to me: “That [many] will suffice you. If my Grandfather had increased you [in dates], I would have increased you.” Thereupon I said to him: “May I be your ransom” and informed him of the story [of my dream]. He smiled, acquainted with what had happened (1).

(1) Dar AlSalam/ vol1, page311.

2. From ‘Ayashi in his Tafseer, from Muhammed bin AlWalid AlBajli. From ‘Abbas bin Halal, concerning Abi Hassan (Musa bin Ja’afer) (pbuh), who said: He (Musa) mentioned that the master(mawla) Ja’afer bin Muhammed (pbuh) is unquestionably my authority, and that Ja’afer (pbuh) had said to him: “I wish for you to become attuned to the name/designation”. Then he knew the Quran in his sleep and woke up with the knowledge. He said: “Muhammed bin AlWalid is from the progeny of authority.” (1).

3. From Ibin Shahr Aashoob concerning his dispatched investigators/scholars from Ma’atab, who said: Someone was knocking on the door of my master AlSadiq (pbuh), so I open the door and it was Zaid bin Ali (pbuh). AlSadiq (pbuh) said to his seated companions: “You [may] enter this house and close the doors but let not any of you talk.” So when [Zaid] came in, [AlSadiq (pbuh)] stood up for him. They embraced, sat down and talked [with each other] for a long time. Then the conversation between them became loud. Thus Zaid said: “Not to mention, O Ja’afer, by Allah, indeed if you did not extend your hand = [a gesture performed to allow others to pledge their allegiance], I [would still have] pledged allegiance. Then this is my hand, so pledge allegiance to me; so that I can appoint you and commission you to what you cannot bear. Thus you have left the Striving(Jihad). And frozen until the covering/screen is lowered and loosened, and you’re included upon the wealth of the east and the west?” AlSadiq (pbuh) replied: “May Allah have mercy on you O uncle. May Allah forgive you O uncle.” At hearing this, Zaid said: “Our appointment is in the morning, or is not the morning approaching?” and he went. Then the people talked about what just happened, so [AlSadiq (pbuh)] said: “hush)صه(, do not say except good to my uncle Zaid. May Allah have mercy on my uncle. Thus if he shows up, he would have honoured/fulfilled [his obligation/promise].” When it was early morning(Sahar), someone knocked on the door; so I opened the door for him [Zaid]. He entered and said, while sniffling and crying: “Have mercy on me O Ja’afer, Allah has had mercy on you. Be pleased/satisfied with me O Ja’afer, Allah is satisfied with you. Forgive me O Ja’afer, Allah has forgiven you.” AlSadiq (pbuh) replied: “Allah has forgiven you, and has had mercy upon you, and is pleased with you. So what is your news, O Uncle?” [Zaid] said: “I went to sleep and saw the Messenger of Allah (pbuhahf) preoccupied by me. On his right was AlHassan and on his left was AlHussein (pbut). Fatima was behind him, while Ali was in front of him (pbut). He had a spear that was bursting into flames as though it was fire. He was saying: “O Zaid. You have hurt the Messenger of Allah (pbuhahf) regarding [your conduct with] Ja’afer. ___

(1) Dar AlSalam/ AlTabrisi/ page310&311.

By Allah, indeed if he had not had mercy on you, forgiven you and was pleased with you; I would stab you with this spear. Thus I truly would have jabbed it between your shoulders, and taken it out through your chest after that.” Then I woke up, alarmed and frightened. Then I came to you, so have mercy on me. May Allah have mercy on you.” [Imam AlSadiq (pbuh)] replied: “Allah is pleased with you, and forgives you. Entrust me [as your Imam], for verily you have been killed, crucified and burnt in the fire.” Thus Zaid entrusted him with his family and children, and [with] the completion of the religion from him (1).

4. From Abi Abd Muhammed bin Ahmed AlDeelmi AlBasri, from Muhammed bin Abi Katheer AlBasri, who said: I used to not start or end my prayers except by cursing the two [worst creatures]. Then, I saw in my sleep a bird that was with a Toor (small jar) (2) made of gems. Inside it was something red resembling AlKhalooq*(3). So [the bird] descended toward the house that encompasses the Messenger of Allah (pbuhahf). Then he took out two individuals from the grave, scented them with this Khalooq on their cheeks and then returned them both to the grave. While he was ascending back and was near me, I asked [that bird]: “And what is this Khalooq?” He replied: “This angel comes every Friday [to] perfume those two.” I was annoyed at what I saw [in my dream]. Then I woke up not perfuming myself by [first] cursing the two. So I went to AlSadiq (pbuh). When he saw me, he laughed and said: “Did you see the bird?” I replied: “Yes, O my master (Sayyed)” He (pbuh) said: “Recite: {Verily Secret Conversation is from the Devil in an effort to sadden Those that believe, and it is not a thing harmful to them except by Allah’s permission}. If you see [in a dream] something you hate, recite it. By Allah, he is an Angel delegated with them two for anything except honoring them. Rather, he is an Angel delegated with the lighting and sunsets of the Earth. If someone killed a victim wrongly, he takes his blood by picking it from the necks of those two. That is because they are the cause of all injustice since their existence (4).
