13. Ibn Faddall has narrated from ‘Abdallah ibn al-Mughira who has said the following.
“I was a member of Waqifa sect and I wen to Hajj with the same belief. When I arrived in Makka an idea began to prick my chest. I got hold of al-Multazam (the wall next to the door of Ka‘ba) and said, “O Lord, You know what I ask for and my intention. Guide me to the best of the religions. It then occurred to me to see al-Rida (a.s.). I went to the city of Madina and stood in front of his door and said to his slave, ‘Tell your master that a man from Iraq is at the door.’” He has said that I heard his voice saying, “O ‘Abdallah ibn Mughira, come in.” I then went inside and when he looked at me he said, “Allah has answered your prayer and has guided you to His religion.” I then said, “I testify that you possess Divine Authority and you are the trustee of Allah over His creatures.” :
13ـ ابْنُ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ قَالَ
كُنْتُ وَاقِفاً وَحَجَجْتُ عَلَى تِلْكَ الْحَالِ فَلَمَّا صِرْتُ بِمَكَّةَ خَلَجَ فِي صَدْرِي شَيْ‏ءٌ فَتَعَلَّقْتُ بِالْمُلْتَزَمِ ثُمَّ قُلْتُ اللهمَّ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ طَلِبَتِي وَإِرَادَتِي فَأَرْشِدْنِي إِلَى خَيْرِ الادْيَانِ فَوَقَعَ فِي نَفْسِي أَنْ آتِيَ الرِّضَا (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فَأَتَيْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَوَقَفْتُ بِبَابِهِ وَقُلْتُ لِلْغُلامِ قُلْ لِمَوْلاكَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ بِالْبَابِ قَالَ فَسَمِعْتُ نِدَاءَهُ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ ادْخُلْ يَا عَبْدَ الله بْنَ الْمُغِيرَةِ ادْخُلْ يَا عَبْدَ الله بْنَ الْمُغِيرَةِ فَدَخَلْتُ فَلَمَّا نَظَرَ إِلَيَّ قَالَ لِي قَدْ أَجَابَ الله دُعَاءَكَ وَهَدَاكَ لِدِينِهِ فَقُلْتُ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ حُجَّةُ الله وَأَمِينُهُ عَلَى خَلْقِهِ.
