It is also narrated from this same Janab Shaykh Baqir from
Sayyid Ja’far, son of Sayyid Baqir Qazwini, that he said:
Once I was going to Masjid Sahla with my father. When we
reached near the Masjid I asked: We hear from people that one,
who attends Masjid Sahla for forty Wednesday eves is able to
meet Saahebul Amr (a.s.). This does not seem to be reliable.
He was enraged at this and he asked: Why? Only because
you have not seen the Imam? And if you have not seen
something it’s not true?
He mentioned some other statements to the same effect,
which made me highly ashamed. At last we entered the Masjid,
and no one else was present there.
My father stood up to pray the Istijara prayer, when a
person came from the place of Imam Zamana (a.s.) who shook
hands with my father.
He had just moved on when my father asked: Do you know
him?
I asked: Was he Imam Zamana (a.s.)?
He replied: Then who is it?
I at once ran and searched everywhere, but did not find
anyone.
