6. Ali ibn Muhammad has narrated from al-Husayn and Muhammad, the sons of Ali ibn Ibrahim from Muhammad ibn Ali ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman al-‘Abdi -from the tribe of ‘Abd Qays- from Daw’ ibn Ali al-‘Ijli from a man of the people of Fars whose name he mentioned and who has said the following.
“I went to Samarra and devoted myself to the gate (of the house) of abu Muhammad (a.s.). The Imam (a.s.) called me. I went to him and offered greetings. He asked me, “ What brings you here?” The narrator has said that he said, “My wish to serve you has brought me here.” He then said, “(Help us) as a devoted (security guard) at the gate.)” The narrator has said that he then stayed at the gate with other servants. Once then he went to buy the needed items from the market. He would inter the house without formal permission when man were in the house. The narrator has said, “One day I interred the house and he (The Imam (a.s.) was in the men’s quarters. I heard some movement in the house and the Imam (a.s.) said to me, “Stay wherever you are and do not move.” I felt shy of going both inside and outside. A maiden came out to me with something under a cover with her. Then the Imam (a.s.) called me to come in. I went inside. He called the maiden and she came back to him. He said to her, “Remove the covering from (the face of) who is you. She removed the cover from the face of a white a complexion beautiful boy. The Imam (a.s.) then removed the covering further aside. There was greenish black hair between his neck and belly. The Imam (a.s.) said, “This is you master (Leader with Divine Authority). Then he ordered her to take him and she obeyed. Ever since I did not see him until abu Muhammad (a.s.) left this world.”

أَتَيْتُ سَامَرَّاءَ وَلَزِمْتُ بَابَ أَبِي مُحَمَّدٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فَدَعَانِي فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمْتُ فَقَالَ مَا الَّذِي أَقْدَمَكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ رَغْبَةٌ فِي خِدْمَتِكَ قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي فَالْزَمِ الْبَابَ قَالَ فَكُنْتُ فِي الدَّارِ مَعَ الْخَدَمِ ثُمَّ صِرْتُ أَشْتَرِي لَهُمُ الْحَوَائِجَ مِنَ السُّوقِ وَكُنْتُ أَدْخُلُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ غَيْرِ إِذْنٍ إِذَا كَانَ فِي الدَّارِ رِجَالٌ قَالَ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ يَوْماً وَهُوَ فِي دَارِ الرِّجَالِ فَسَمِعْتُ حَرَكَةً فِي الْبَيْتِ فَنَادَانِي مَكَانَكَ لا تَبْرَحْ فَلَمْ أَجْسُرْ أَنْ أَدْخُلَ وَلا أَخْرُجَ فَخَرَجَتْ عَلَيَّ جَارِيَةٌ مَعَهَا شَيْ‏ءٌ مُغَطًّى ثُمَّ نَادَانِيَ ادْخُلْ فَدَخَلْتُ وَنَادَى الْجَارِيَةَ فَرَجَعَتْ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ لَهَا اكْشِفِي عَمَّا مَعَكِ فَكَشَفَتْ عَنْ غُلامٍ أَبْيَضَ حَسَنِ الْوَجْهِ وَكَشَفَ عَنْ بَطْنِهِ فَإِذَا شَعْرٌ نَابِتٌ مِنْ لَبَّتِهِ إِلَى سُرَّتِهِ أَخْضَرُ لَيْسَ بِأَسْوَدَ فَقَالَ هَذَا صَاحِبُكُمْ ثُمَّ أَمَرَهَا فَحَمَلَتْهُ فَمَا رَأَيْتُهُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ حَتَّى مَضَى أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام )
