Hadith record

12. Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla ibn Muhammad from (al-Hassan ibn Ali) al-Washsha’ who has said the following. “I came to Khurasan when I was a member of the Waqifa sect. I had certain goods with me. In these goods there was a printed piece of fabric in one of the bundles. It was misplaced and did not know where it was. When I arrived in Marv and found a lodging a man who was born in the city of Madina came by and said to me, “Abu al-Hassan al-Rida (a.s.) said to you, “send to me the piece of printed fabric that is with you.” He has said that I then said, “Who has told abu al-Hassan (a.s.) about my arrival here? I have just arrived. There is no printed fabric with me.” He went back to the Imam (a.s.) and returned to me saying, “The Imam (a.s.) says, “It is in such and such place and in such and such bundle.” I then looked for it as he had said and found it at the bottom of the bundle and then I sent it to him.”
