I intended to go for Hajj and made preparations for this purpose. A message came, “We dislike that.” I became much anxious and grievous. I wrote, “I remain submissive and obedient. However, I am sad for missing the Hajj.” A holy letter came: “Grieve not, for you will perform Hajj next year.” Next year, I sought permission and the answer came in positive. I wrote, “I am leaving Muhammad Ibn Abbas behind, and I am certain of his piety and honesty.” The answer came, “Asadi is the best caretaker. If he should arrive, do not choose anyone over him.” Asadi came and I left him as my caretaker.
