NAJMUS SAAQIB Incident Seventeen: Taking the letter from an applicant

Reading Time: < 1 minute
Moreover, the venerable Sayyid, Ali bin Taaoos (r.a.)
says in his book of Farajul Mahmoom


The respected scholar has also said in the  book:
Among them is an incident related by a person of proved
veracity in my view. He narrated that he sent a written plea to Imam Mahdi
(a.s.), in which he mentioned many of his problems and requested him to reply
to this letter himself. And he took the letter to the cellar in Sar man raa.
But since he feared that if he left it there, someone else may get hold of it
and destroy it, he brought it out again and placed it under a stone in the
mausoleum. It was Friday eve. When it was midnight,
a servant came running and said: Give your Ariza to me.
But I was engrossed in prayer at that time and when I
concluded the prayer and came out, I could neither see any servant nor any
master. (this report implies that Imam Mahdi (a.s.) knew about his Ariza, about
which no one knew and he had sent his servant to collect it.[1]
