Miracle of the ring

Amash has narrated from Mansur that once he was about to travel by sea and he was telling Imam Muhammad Baqir (a.s) about it. 

The Imam gave him a finger ring and its miracle quality was that when he removed it from his finger and placed it in the ship it used to stop and when he put it on, the ship moved again.

Travelling by ship we entered the Euphrates and near Baghdad one of my brothers dropped a bag in the water. When I dropped the ring in the water that bag floated on the surface and the ring returned with it and we lifted them both from the water.
