Enlivening an old lady

Miracles of Masoomeen
Yahya Ibne Umme Taveel narrates that I was in the presence of Imam Husain (a.s.) when a young man came crying and said that his mother had died and has not willed. 

She asked him to inform about her death to Imam (a.s.) and then she will state her will. We along with Imam Husain (a.s.) went to the house of the old lady. 

When we reached her house, Imam (a.s.) prayed for her and she became alive. She invited Imam (a.s.) in her house. She informed Imam (a.s.) that she had me kept some money at some place. 

She willed that one part of it belongs to Imam (a.s.) and he may use it wherever he wishes. Two parts were for her son as he was Imam ( a.s.) slave and friend. She said to Imam (a.s.) to take the other two parts from her son if he is not Imam's friend as enemies do not have any share in the wealth of the believers. She willed to Imam (a.s.) to lead her burial prayers and take care of her affairs and then she died.

On the way, one day at Johfa I headed for Ghadeer, which is at a distance of four miles from Johfa. I reached there and prayed in the Masjid and after that I supplicated Almighty Allah very fervently; but the aim was not fulfilled there also. So I went to Asfan and thus passing each stage in turn, reached Mecca. I stayed there for some days and was engrossed in Tawaf and other devotions. One night, when I was doing the Tawaf, I noticed an extremely handsome and fragrant young man walking about and doing the Tawaf of the Kaaba. Some feelings arose in my heart; I moved towards him and touched him. He asked: Where do you belong to? I said: Iraq. He asked: Where in Iraq? I said: ...
