Al-Kharaij: It is mentioned in this books as follows:

“Abu Muhammad Da-alji, who was a good co-religionist of us, was a traditionist and he had two sons. One was named Abul Hasan and he was arighteous man who had a lawful profession and washed the dead bodies. Theother son indulged in unlawful activities. A sum of money was sent to AbuMuhammad to perform Hajj on behalf of the Imam of the Time (a.t.f.s.) andthis custom was prevalent among the Shia. So, Abu Muhammad gave some of this money to his errant son, and then he went to perform the Hajj. When he returned from there, he reported the following incident: I was standing in Arafat, when I saw an elegant young man of wheaten complexion standing besides me and busy in supplication and worship. When people departed from Arafat, he turned to me and said: O Shaykh, are you not ashamed? I said: My master, for what? He replied: From the money someone sent to do Hajj on my behalf you gave an amount to a person who is a transgressor and drinks wine? Very soon you will lose this eye. And he pointed to one of my eyes. From that day I am living in dread. Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Muhammad Noman, Shaykh Mufeed also heard of this. The narrator says: Not even forty days passed after his return that from the same eye which was pointed to, pus came  out and it became blind.”
