They stopped for rest on one of the oasis under a palm tree that had dried up due to lack of water. A furnishing was spread for Imam al-Hassan (a.s.) under that tree and for al-Zubayri the furnishings were arranged under a tree just next to it. The narrator has said that al-Zubayri looked up the tree and said, 'I wish the tree had fruits so we could eat from them.' Al-Hassan (a.s.) asked, 'Do you wish to have dates?' He said, 'Yes, I do wish to have dates.' He (al-Hassan (a.s.) raised his hands to the sky and spoke certain words that I did not understand. The tree turned green, then it returned to its normal condition, and its leaves grew and it became loaded with dates. The man from they had hired camels begun to say, 'It, by Allah, is magic!' Al-Hassan (a.s.) said, 'Woe is you. It is not magic but it is a prayer of the son of a prophet that is answered.' They climbed the tree and picked the dates that were there and it provided enough for their needs.”

He said, 'Nay, if we reach this place of rest you will a black person who has oil with him, buy from oil without trying to reduce the price.' The servant said, 'May my parents be your ransom, we have never been to a place of rest where anyone would sell such medicine.' The Imam (a.s.) said to him, 'Yes, there are such people right in front of you before reaching the place for rest.' They walked for a mile and they met the black person. Al-Hassan (a.s.) said to his servant, 'There is the man. Take the oil from him and pay him.' The black man asked the servant, 'For whom do you want this oil?' He replied, 'I want it for al-Hassan ibn Ali (a.s.).' He said, 'Take me to him.' They came to al-Hassan (a.s.) and the man said, 'May my parents be your ransom! I did not know that you need this. If you would like to have it you have it free of charge. I am only one your servants. Just pray to Allah for me that i may be granted a healthy son who would love you, Ahl al-Bayt. When I left, my wife was about to give birth.' The Imam (a.s.) said, 'Go to your home. Allah has gifted you with a healthy son who is of our Shi‘a (followers).'"
