Hadith 12

t the Magian thinks that he has exposed to him, and the man was capacious in the world. He saw Rasool-Allah-saww a second time, and third. He woke up in the morning, the Magian came and said to him in isolation from the people, ‘I am a messenger of Rasool-Allah-saww and he-saww tells you that the supplication is answered’. He said to him, ‘Do you recognise me? ’ He said, ‘Yes’. He said, ‘I deny the religion of and Prophet-hood of Muhammad-saww’. He said, ‘I do know this, and he-saww is the one who had sent me to you time, and time, and time’. He said, ‘I testify that there is no god except Allah-azwj, and that Muhammad-saww is Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj’, and he called his family members and his companion and said to them, ‘I was upon straying and I have returned to the truth, so become Muslims. The one who becomes a Muslim, so whatever is in his hands is for him, and one who refuses, let him be removed from what is for me with him’. The group became Muslims, and so did his family members, and his daughter had been married to his son (brother and sister), so he effected a separation between the two. Then he said to me, ‘Do you know what the supplication is? ’ I said, ‘No, by Allah-azwj, and I want to ask you about it now’. He said, ‘When I got my daughter married, I made a meal and invited the people. They answered, and there were some noble poor people by our side, there being no wealth for them. I instructed my servants to spread a mat for me in the middle of the house. I heard a little girl saying to her mother, ‘O mother! This Magian has harmed us with the aroma of his food! ’
So, I sent to them a lot of food and Dinars to them all. When they looked at that, the little girl said, ‘By Allah-azwj! We will not eat until we supplicate for him’. They raised their hands and said, ‘May Allah-azwj Resurrect you with our grandfather-saww Rasool-Allah-saww! ’ And some of them said Ameen. So that is the supplication which has been Answered’’. [15]
And Ibn Al Jowzy has transmitted as well in his book, from his grandfather Abu Al Faraj, by his chain to Ibn Al Khazeyb who said, ‘I was a scribe for the mother of Al-Mutwakkal. While I was in the registry, there was a young servant who had come out from her presence and with him was a pouch having a thousand Dinars in it. He said, ‘The chieftess is saying to you, ‘Distribute these among the deserving people for it is from the goodly of my wealth and write down the names of those you distribute it among them, until when something comes to me from this aspect, I can divert it to them’. He said, ‘I went to my house and gathered my companions and asked them about the deserving ones. They named some persons to me. I distributed three hundred Dinars among them,
