Mohsal Yazdi writes, ‘It was the month of Muharram in 1380 A.H. There was a series of sermons in religious gatherings (majalis) arranged for Imam Husayn, in the Mosque 27 of Ale Rasool in Iran. One night it was my turn to recite the sermon. In this sermon I related that one who recites Ziyarat Ashura for forty days with all its proprieties and respect, then all his calamities and hardships shall be removed for the sake of this Ziyarat.
Then one day, while I was walking along the road, in Mashhad, I met Muhammad Husayn Fedaai Baharjandi, who lived in Iran working as a teacher. He was a man with very sound beliefs and a true lover of the Ahl ul Bayt (a.s.). He had earlier planned to shift to Mashshad, but somehow could not do so. After inquiring about my condition he said, ‘Do you know I have finally been transferred to Mashhad?’
I said, ‘How is that?’
He reminded: ‘Didn’t you once narrate in one of your sermons that one can remove his afflictions by performing the Amal of Ashura. I began performing that Aamal. Then I came to Mashhad in my holidays for Ziyarat, when I met one person, I did not know him from before. He seemed very cultured, with good etiquette. He told me, ‘Do you have any wish, any unfulfilled demands?’
I said, ‘No. Thank you.’
However, he insisted. Finally I told him that I wanted to shift to Mashhad. Immediately, he took me along with him to Khorasan, where we 28 met with the Governor. I was completely taken aback. It was as if this person was specially appointed to solve my problem.
After the completion of all formalities he said, ‘Now you can shift here, with your wife and children.’
Thus Amal Ashura was the cause through which I achieved my heart’s desire.’
