H 234 - It is narrated from Ahmad bin Ali Raazi from Abu Zar Ahmad bin Abi Surah, same is reported by Muhammad bin Hasan bin Abdullah Tamimi and he was a Zaidiyyah; that he said
“Once I went to Heer and saw a handsome youth praying there. After that the two of us reached Mashra. He asked: O Abu Surah, where are you headed?” I said: To Kufa. He asked: But with whom? I said: With other people. He said: No, you will travel with us. I asked: What do you mean: ‘with us’? He replied: With me. Thus the two of us set out from there and when we reached the graveyard of Masjid Sahla, he said: That place is near your destination, if you want, you may proceed. He also said: You should go to Ibn Raazi Ali bin Yahya, who will give to you some money, which is with him. I asked: Why would he give me anything? He replied: You mention the amount, where it is placed and with what it is covered. So I asked: Who are you? He replied: I am Muhammad bin Hasan Askari. I asked: What if he refuses to give me anything in spite of the signs? He said: I am behind you. Ibn Abi Surah says: When I went to Ibn Raazi and mentioned the signs, he gave that amount to me. I told him that he had said that he was behind me. Ibn Raazi said: After this sign there is no need of any verification as other than the Almighty Allah, no one had any knowledge of it.
234- أحمد بن علي الرازي، عن أبي ذر أحمد بن أبي سورة- وهو محمد بن الحسن بن عبدالله التميمي وكان زيديا- قال
سمعت هذه الحكاية عن جماعة يروونها عن أبي رحمه الله أنه خرج إلى الحير قال: فلما صرت إلى الحير إذا شاب حسن الوجه يصلي، ثم إنه ودع وودعت وخرجنا، فجئنا إلى المشرعة. فقال لي: يا با سورة أين تريد؟ فقلت: الكوفة، فقال لي: مع من؟ قلت مع الناس، قال لي: لا تريد نحن جميعا نمضي، قلت: ومن معنا؟ فقال: ليس نريد معنا أحدا، قال: فمشينا ليلتنا فإذا نحن على مقابر مسجد السهلة، فقال لي: هو ذا منزلك، فإن شئت فامض. ثم قال لي: تمر إلى ابن الزراري علي بن يحيى فتقول له: يعطيك المال الذي عنده، فقلت له لا يدفعه إلي، فقال لي: قل له: بعلامة أنه كذا وكذا دينارا وكذا وكذا درهما، وهو في موضع كذا وكذا، وعليه كذا وكذا مغطى، فقلت له: ومن أنت؟ قال: أنا محمد بن الحسن، قلت:فإن لم يقبل مني وطولبت بالدلالة؟ فقال: أنا وراك، قال: فجئت إلى ابن الزراري فقلت له: فدفعني، فقلت له: (العلامات التي قال لي وقلت له:) قد قال لي: أنا وراك، فقال: ليس بعد هذا شيء، وقال لم يعلم بهذا إلا الله تعالى ودفع إلي المال.
