3. Ali ibn Muhammad has narrated from Muhammad ibn Ibrahim, known as ibn al-Kurdi, from Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Ibrahim ibn Musa ibn Ja'far (a.s.) who has said the following: “We were under pressure and constraint. My father said, “Let us go to Abu Muhammad (a.s.). People describe him as very generous and considerate.” I asked, “Do you know him?” He said, “No, I do not know him and I have not seen him before.” We decided to go and meet him. My father said on the way, 'I wish he would grant us five hundred Dirhams. One hundred for clothes, one hundred for to pay the debts and one hundred for expenses. We need this very badly.” I then said to myself, “I wish he will grant me three hundred Dirhams, one hundred to buy a donkey, one hundred for expenses and one hundred for clothes, and then i will go to the mountains.” The narrator has said that when we arrived at the door a slave came out and said, “Ali ibn Ibrahim and his son Muhammad come inside.” When we were in his (the Imam’s (a.s.) presence we offered the greeting of peace and said to my father. “O Ali, what held you back from coming to us until now?” He said, “My master, I felt shy to come to you in this condition.” When we left him his slave came to us and gave a bag of money to my father saying, “This is five hundred Dirhams, one hundred for clothes, one hundred to pay debts and one hundred for expenses.” He gave me a bag and said, “This is three hundred Dirhams, one hundred for the donkey, one hundred for clothes and one hundred for expenses. Do not go to the mountains. Go to Sawra’. He then went to Sawra’ and married a woman and now his income from properties is a thousand Dinar despite this he belongs to the Waqifi sect in matters of beliefs. Muhammad ibn Ibrahim has said that I said to him, “Woe is you! What more clear proof do you want to believe in him as your Imam?” He said, “This (belief in Waqifi sect) is habit that has been with us (and it does go away).”
