Hadith 67

(The book) ‘Rijal’ of Al Kashy’ – Ja’far Bin Ahmad Bin Ayoub, from Ahmad Bin Al-Hassan Al Maysami, from Abu Najeeh, from Al Fayz Bin Al Mukhtar, and from him, from Ali Bin Ismail, from Abu Najeeh, from Al Fayz who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah-asws, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! What are you-asws saying regarding the land, shall I accept it from the sultan? Then, can I rent it out to others based upon that whatever Allah-azwj Brings Forth from it, of anything, the half or the third of that would be for me, or less than that or more? ’
He-asws said: ‘There is no problem’. His-asws son Ismail said to him-asws, ‘O father-asws! Why did you-asws hold back (precautionary)? ’
He (the narrator) said, ‘He-asws said: ‘O my-asws son! And don’t I-asws treat my-asws workers like that? How many times I-asws have said to you, be with me-asws, but you are not doing so! ’ Ismail stood up and went out. I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! And what is upon Ismail if he does not be with you-asws, when you-asws are going to give the things to him from after you-asws, like what was given to you-asws after your-asws father-asws? ’
He (the narrator) said, ‘He-asws said: ‘O Fayz! Ismail isn’t like I-asws am from my-asws father-asws’. I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! We are not having any doubts that the men would be going to him from after you-asws, and I have (also) said regarding him what I have said. Supposing it happens what we fear (death), and I ask Allah-azwj for the well-being, then to whom? ’
He (the narrator) said, ‘He-asws withheld from me. I kissed his-asws knee and said, ‘Have mercy, my Master-asws, for it is the Fire (to follow the wrong imam), and by Allah-azwj, if I were to die before you-asws, I would not care, but I fear the remaining after you-asws’. He-asws said to me: ‘(Stay) in your place! ’ Then he-asws stood to a curtain in the house, he-asws raised it and entered. Then he-asws remained for a while, then shouted: ‘O Fayz, enter! ’ I entered, and there he-asws was in the Masjid (praying place), praying Salat in it, and he-asws turned away from the Qiblah. So, I sat down in front of him-asws. Abu Al-Hassan-asws entered, and on that day he-asws was five years old, and in his-asws hand what a whip. I sat him-asws down upon his-asws thing. He-asws said: ‘May my-asws father-asws and my-asws mother-as be (sacrificed) for you-asws! What is this stick in your hand? ’ He-asws said: ‘I-asws passed by my-asws brother Ali, and it was in his hand. He was beating an animal, so I-asws snatched it away from his hand’. Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘O Fayz! Rasool-Allah-saww, the Parchments of Ibrahim-as and
