Shaykh Hurre Amili writes in his Isbaatul Hodaat: ‘At the
age of 10, I was afflicted with such an illness that even the
doctors treating me were helpless before my condition. At one
point in time, my relatives and close companions had gathered
around my bed as if they were awaiting my imminent death.
They were sure that I was going to die and were crying out in
grief.
That night I was blessed with a visit from the Holy Prophet
(s.a.w.a.) and the Twelve holy Imams (a.s.). They were standing
around my bed. I greeted them and shook hands with each one of
them. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) and I had a small discussion,
which I am unable to recall now, but what I do remember clearly
is that the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.) prayed to Allah in my favor.
When I shook hands with Imam Zamaan (a.s.), I told him in
tears, “O master, O Sayyid, I am afraid that I will die due to this
illness. My desire to seek knowledge will remain unfulfilled.”
Imam Zamana (a.s.) said, “Not to fear; you will not die of
this illness. Allah will cure you from it and you will have a long
life.” There was a glass of water in his hands, which he gave to
me. I drank the water and immediately felt that I was cured. My
family members seated there were astonished at this miraculous
recovery. After a few days, I told them about the incident, which
resulted in my care.
