كَانَ عِيسَى بْنُ أَعْيَنَ إِذَا حَجَّ فَصَارَ إِلَى الْمَوْقِفِ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى الدُّعَاءِ لِإِخْوَانِهِ حَتَّى يُفِيضَ النَّاسُ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ تُنْفِقُ مَالَكَ وَ تُتْعِبُ بَدَنَكَ حَتَّى إِذَا صِرْتَ إِلَى الْمَوْضِعِ الَّذِي تُبَثُّ فِيهِ الْحَوَائِجُ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَقْبَلْتَ عَلَى الدُّعَاءِ لِإِخْوَانِكَ وَ تَرَكْتَ نَفْسَكَ قَالَ إِنِّي عَلَى ثِقَةٍ مِنْ دَعْوَةِ الْمَلَكِ لِي وَ فِي شَكٍّ مِنَ الدُّعَاءِ لِنَفْسِي.

8. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Muhammad ibn ’Isa ibn ‘Ubayd from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from who has said the following: “‘Isa ibn ’A‘yan in al-Hajj during his stay in ‘Arafat prayed for his brothers (in belief) until people left ‘Arafat for al-Muzdalifah. I (the narrator) asked him, ‘You spend your money, make yourself tired and when you reach the place where wishes are presented before Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, you then begin to pray for your brothers (in belief). Why do you ignore yourself?’ He replied, ‘I am certain that the prayers of angels are accepted but I have doubts about the acceptability of my prayer for myself.”’
