55-1 (The author of the book narrated) my father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Sa’d ibn Abdullah quoted on the authority of Abul Khayr Salih ibn Abi Hammad, on the authority of Al-Hassan ibn Ali al-Washsha’, “I had written down many questions and I used to have them with me all the time. Before becoming certain about the Divine Leadership of Abil Hassan Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.), I had compiled those questions in the form of a book that contained narrations from his forefathers, etc. I wanted to test him concerning his Divine Leadership. I picked up that book, hid it in my sleeves, and went to his house. I wanted to hand him the book when I was alone with him and ask him what he (a.s.) thoughtabout it in order to find out about the degree of his scientific mastery. Therefore I sat in a corner of the house thinking about seeking permission. There were some people sitting near the door of Ar-Ridha’’s (a.s.) room talking with each other. Then as I was thinking about asking for permission to see him (a.s.), one of the servants came out with a book in his hand and loudly announced, ‘Who is Al-Hassan ibn Ali al-Washsha’ - the son of the daughter of Elias from Baghdad?’ I stood up and said, ‘That’s me. What do you want?’ The servant said, ‘I have been told to hand you this book. Take it.’ I took the book, went out and sat in a corner to read it. I swear by God that he had posed all the questions which I had recorded in my book to ask him, and had answered all of them. Then I became certain that he was the Divine Leader and stopped being one of the Waqafites.”

55-2 (The author of the book narrated) my father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Sa’d ibn Abdullah quoted on the authority of Abul Khayr Salih ibn Abi Hammad, on the authority of Al-Hassan ibn Ali al-Washsha’, “Abal Hassan Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) sent his servant to me with a note on which it was written, ‘Please send me a robe of such and such a color and made in such and such a place.’ I wrote him back a letter and told the messenger, ‘Tell him that I do not have such a robe. I do not know about any such robe and do not have one.’ Then the messenger left, returned again and said, ‘Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) says that you have one. Please search some more. You will find it.’ I replied, ‘I have searched for it. I do not have such a robe.’ The messenger left, came back again and said, ‘Search some more. You will find it.’ Someone had left such a robe with me for sale, but I had totally forgotten about it. I searched some more and found it in a closed bag under all the other clothes. Then I sent it for Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.).”

IsnādAbu a rapporté de Dieu qu'il était satisfait de lui, il a dit: Saad ibn Abdallah nous a informés, il a dit: Abu al-Khayr Salih ibn Abi Hammad nous a informés, de al-Hasan ibn Ali al-Washa' a transmis, Abu al-Hasan al-Rida, que la paix soit sur lui, a envoyé son serviteur avec une lettre, et avec lui une pièce de tissu contenant une demande d'envoyer un vêtement de tel type et tel genre de tissu. J'ai écrit en réponse en disant au messager: "Je n'ai pas de vêtement de cette qualité et je ne connais pas ce type de tissu." Le messager est retourné vers moi en disant: "Demande-le." J'ai répondu au messager en disant: "Je n'ai rien de ce type de tissu." Le messager est retourné en disant: "Demande, car tu en as." Al-Hasan ibn Ali al-Washa' a dit: "Un homme m'a vendu un vêtement de ce type et m'a ordonné de le vendre, mais j'avais oublié. J'ai cherché tout ce que j'avais avec moi et je l'ai trouvé sous tous les vêtements. Je l'ai donc pris et l'ai apporté à lui."

55-3 Ahmad ibn Ziyad al-Hamadani - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Ali ibn Ibrahim ibn Hashem quoted on the authority of his father, on the authority of Safwan ibn Yahya, “I was with Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) when Al-Husayn ibn Khalid al-Sayrafi entered and said, ‘May I be your ransom! I intend to go to A’wadh.’ The Imam (a.s.) told him, ‘Stay wherever you have found health and security.’ He did not pay any attention to this recommendation and traveled towards there. Some highway robbers attacked him along the way and stole whatever he had.”

IsnādAhmad ibn Ziyad ibn Ja'far al-Hamdani a rapporté, qu'Allah soit satisfait de lui, a dit: Nous a informés 'Ali ibn Ibrahim ibn Hashim, de Safwan ibn Yahya, qui a dit: J'étais chez Abi al-Hasan al-Rida, que la paix soit sur lui, lorsque Husayn ibn Khalid al-Sayrafi entra et lui dit: Que je sois sacrifié pour toi, je veux sortir vers al-A'wadh. Il lui dit: Où que tu trouves la sécurité, reste-y. Mais cela ne le convainquit pas. Il sortit alors pour se rendre à al-A'wadh, mais le chemin lui fut coupé et tout ce qu'il avait avec lui comme argent lui fut pris.
