2. Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla ibn Muhammad from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Abdallah from Muhammad ibn Yahya from Salih ibn Sa‘id who has said the following.
“Once I went to see abu al-Hassan (a.s.) and I said, “May Allah take my soul in service for your cause, in all matters they wanted to extinguish your light and be unjust towards you. So much so that they have lodged you in this disgraceful place for the homeless.” He said, “O ibn Sa‘id, here. He pointed out with his hand and said, “Look there.” When looked I saw gardens. I saw very delightful gardens. There lived lovely boys and girls as if they well protected and secure pearls. There lived birds and beautiful deer. It have fountains and rivers that pur out and gush forth. My sight bewildered and my eyes turned dull. He then said, “Wherever we may live these are for us. We are in the lodging for the homeless.”
2ـ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُعَلَّى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الله عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ
دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فَقُلْتُ لَهُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ فِي كُلِّ الامُورِ أَرَادُوا إِطْفَاءَ نُورِكَ وَالتَّقْصِيرَ بِكَ حَتَّى أَنْزَلُوكَ هَذَا الْخَانَ الاشْنَعَ خَانَ الصَّعَالِيكِ فَقَالَ هَاهُنَا أَنْتَ يَا ابْنَ سَعِيدٍ ثُمَّ أَوْمَأَ بِيَدِهِ وَقَالَ انْظُرْ فَنَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِرَوْضَاتٍ آنِقَاتٍ وَرَوْضَاتٍ بَاسِرَاتٍ فِيهِنَّ خَيْرَاتٌ عَطِرَاتٌ وَوِلْدَانٌ كَأَنَّهُنَّ اللُّؤْلُؤُ الْمَكْنُونُ وَأَطْيَارٌ وَظِبَاءٌ وَأَنْهَارٌ تَفُورُ فَحَارَ بَصَرِي وَحَسَرَتْ عَيْنِي فَقَالَ حَيْثُ كُنَّا فَهَذَا لَنَا عَتِيدٌ لَسْنَا فِي خَانِ الصَّعَالِيكِ.
