Miracle of Maryam (s.a)

Miracles of Masoomeen

Abdur Rahman bin Kathir has narrated from Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s) that he said: During a journey my father (a.s) halted at a valley and pitched his tent over there. 

Then he went to a dry date palm and sitting under it, started to recite praise and glorification of God Almighty. After that he recited something that I had never heard before. Then he said,  

“O date palm, give us to eat from what God has bestowed within you.” As soon he said this, the date palm fructified and ripened red and yellow dates dropped from it. The Imam ate from them and also offered to Abu Umayyah Ansari and said, “Abu Umayyah, this miracle of ours is like that of Lady Maryam (s.a). Fresh dates had dropped when she shook the date palm.”

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: ...
