“I once said to abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), that I escorted my people to al-Qadisiyah and they said to me, ‘Come with us, we shall wait for three days for you. I returned and I did not have anything for my expenses but Allah made it possible and I joined them. He (the Imam) said, ‘Whoever’ s name is written in the delegation is not able to avoid al-Hajj even if he is poor and whoever’ s name is not written cannot do al-Hajj even if he is rich and in good health.’”
