Hadith 56

. He-ajfj took a cup from the two and placed his-ajfj hand in it and gave it to us, and like that he-ajfj did with the other. We drank most of what was in the cups, and it was returned to us, and the cups were not deficient. When we were saturated, we said to him-ajfj, ‘The hunger, O face of the Arabs! ’ He-ajfj returned by himself and entered the tent and brought out a tray in his-ajfj hand wherein was provision, and placed it, and he-ajfj placed his-ajfj hand in it and said: ‘Let ten by ten from you come’. We all ate from that tray. By Allah-azwj, O so and so! It neither changed nor reduced. We said, ‘We want (to know) the road of wilderness’. He-ajfj said: ‘There, that is your way! ’ – and he-ajfj gestured for us to know, and we went. When we were distant from him-ajfj, we said to each other, ‘You have come out from your families in order to achieve the earnings. This has resulted for you’. Some of us forbade others, and instructed others with it. Then our views were united upon taking them. So we returned. When he-ajfj saw us returning, he-ajfj tightened his-ajfj waist with his-ajfj belt and took a sword and collared with it, and he-ajfj grabbed a spear and rode a strong horse and met us, and he-ajfj said: ‘Do not let your ugly souls to prepare ugliness for you! ’ We said, ‘It is just as you-ajfj have thought’ – and we responded to him with an ugly response. He-ajfj shouted with shouts. We did not see except someone the awe had entered in our heart from him-ajfj, and we turned around from in front of him-ajfj, defeated. He-ajfj drew a line between us and him-ajfj and said: ‘By the right of my-ajfj grandfather-saww Rasool-Allah-saww! Not one of you will cross it except I-ajfj shall strike his neck off! ’
By Allah-azwj! We returned from him-ajfj with the rubbing of noses from us. Here was that Alawite. He-ajfj is true. By Allah-azwj! He-ajfj is not like them! ’’[73]
Note: This is the last of what we have extracted from the book ‘Al Sultan Al Faraj An Ahl Al Eman’. (The book) ‘Kitab Al Fihrist’ of the Sheikh Muntajab Al Deen, said, ‘The revolutionary of Allah-azwj is Al-Mahdi-ajfj, son-ajfj of the revolutionary of Allah-azwj, the majestic Al Husayn-asws’. He was a Zaydite and claimed the imamate of the Zaydites, and he rebelled at Jeylan, then he had insight and became an Imamite, and for him there are Ahadeeth reported, and he claimed that he had witnessed Master-ajfj of the command, and he had reported things from him-ajfj. And Abu Al-Hassan Ali Bin Muhammad Bin Ali Bin Abu Al Qasim Al Alawy Al Sha’rany, a righteous scholar said he had witnessed the Imam-ajfj, Master-ajfj of the command, and he reported Ahadeeth from him-ajfj, may the greetings be upon him-ajfj and his-ajfj forefathers-asws. And Abu Al Faraj Al Muzaffar Bin Ali Bin Al Husayn Al Hamdany, a reliable eyes, and he is from the ambassadors of the Imam-ajfj, Master-ajfj of the Time. He came across the Sheikh Al Mufeed, and he had sat in the gathering classroom of the Seyyid Al Murtazam, and the Sheikh Abu Ja’far Al Tusi, may Allah-azwj Sanctify their souls’’.
