Hadith 596
۞
69-2 Abu Talib Al-Husayn ibn Abdullah ibn Banan Al-Ta’ee narrated that he had heard Aba Mansoor ibn Abdul Razzaq ask the ruler of Toos known as Al-Biwardi, “Do you have any children?” He replied, “No.” Then Aba Mansoor asked him, “Why don’t you go to the Shrine of Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) to pray to God near his tomb, and ask that God grant you a son. I have asked God the Highest for many of my needs there, and they have been fulfilled.” Then the ruler said, “
I set out for the Shrine - may peace be upon its resident (Imam Ridha’) - and prayed to God near Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.)’s tomb and asked God to grant me a son. Then God the Honorable the Exalted granted me a son. Then I went to Aba Mansoor and informed him that God the Highest had fulfilled my prayer in this Shrine, favored me, granted me a son and honored me there upon.”The author of this book (a.s.heikh Sadooq) said, “I asked Rokn ul-Dowleh - the ruler - for permission to go on pilgrimage to the Shrine of Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.). He issued the permit in the (Arabic) month of Rajab of the year 352 A.H. (962 A.D.), and handed it over to me. When I left there, he called me in and said, “This is a blessed Shrine which I have already visited. I asked God the Highest for my personal needs and He fulfilled all of them for me. I ask you not to forget to pray for me there, and that you visit Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) on my behalf, since indeed prayers would be fulfilled in that Shrine. Then I promised him that I would pray for him, and I fulfilled my promise. When I returned from that place (the Shrine) - may peace and greetings be upon its resident - and went to see him (Rukn ad-Dawla), he asked me, “Did you pray for me?” Then I said, “Yes.” Then he told me, “Excellent! Indeed it has been proven to me that prayers said in that Shrine are fulfilled.”
2- حَدَّثَنا أَبُو طالب الحُسَين بن عَبدُ اللَّه بن بنان الطائي قالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا مَنْصُورِ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ يَقُولُ لِحَاكِمِ طُوسَ الْمَعْرُوفِ بِالْبِيوَرْدِيِّ هَلْ لَكَ وَلَدٌ فَقَالَ لا فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو مَنْصُورٍ لِمَ لا تَقْصِدُ مَشْهَدَ الرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ وَتَدْعُو اللَّهَ عِنْدَهُ حَتَّى يَرْزُقَكَ وَلَداً فَإِنِّي سَأَلْتُ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى هُنَاكَ فِي حَوَائِجَ فَقُضِيَتْ لِي قَالَ الْحَاكِمُ فَقَصَدْتُ الْمَشْهَدَ عَلَى سَاكِنِهِ السَّلامُ وَدَعَوْتُ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى عِنْدَ الرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ أَنْ يَرْزُقَنِي وَلَداً فَرَزَقَنِي اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَلَداً ذَكَراً فَجِئْتُ إِلَى أَبِي مَنْصُورِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ وَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِاسْتِجَابَةِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى لِي فِي الْمَشْهَدِ فَوَهَبَ لِي وَأَعْطَانِي وَأَكْرَمَنِي عَلَى ذَلِكَقَالَ مُصَنِّفُ هَذَا الكِتابِ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ لَمَّا اسْتَأذَنْتُ الأمِيرَ السَّعِيدَ رُكْنَ الدَّوْلَةِ فِي زِيَارَةِ مَشْهَدِ الرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ فَأذِنَ لِي فِي ذَلِكَ فِي رَجَبٍ مِنْ سَنَةِ اثْنَتَيْنِ وَخَمْسِينَ وَثَلاثَمِائَةٍ فَلَمَّا انْقَلَبْتُ عَنْهُ رَدَّنِي فَقَالَ لِي هَذَا مَشْهَدٌ مُبَارَكٌ قَدْ زُرْتُهُ وَسَأَلْتُ اللهَ تَعَالى حَوَائِجَ كَانَتْ فِي نَفْسِي فَقَضَاهَا لِي فَلا تُقَصِّرْ فِي الدُّعَاءِ لِي هُنَاكَ وَالزِّيَارَةِ عَنِّي فَإنَّ الدُّعَاءَ فِيهِ مُسْتَجَابٌ. فَضَمِنْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ وَوَفَيْتُ بِهِ فَلَمَّا عُدْتُ مِنَ الْمَشْهَدِ عَلَى سَاكِنِهِ التَّحِيَّةُ وَالسَّلاَمُ وَدَخَلتُ إلَيْهِ فَقَالَ لِي: هَلْ دَعَوْتَ لَنَا وَزُرْتَ عَنَّا؟ فَقُلتُ: نَعَمْ. فَقالَ لي: قَدْ أحْسَنْتَ، قَدْ صَحَّ لِي أنَّ الدُّعَاءَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْمَشْهَدِ مُسْتَجَابٌ.
