Fitrus is cured

Muhammad bin Hasan Saffar has narrated through his authorities from Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s) that he said: When Almighty Allah presented the Wilayah of Amirul Momineen. The angels accepted it and an angel called Fitrus refused it, so Allah broke his wings. When Husain bin Ali was born, Allah sent Jibraeel among seventy thousand angels to Muhammad to congratulate him of his birth. (On his way) he passed by Fitrus.

Fitrus said, ‘O Jibraeel! Where are you going?’ He said: ‘Allah has sent me to Muhammad to congratulate them (him) of the birth of a son during this night.’

Fitrus said, ‘Carry me with you and ask Muhammad to supplicate for me.’ Jibraeel said to him: ‘Ride on my wing.’ He rode his wing and came to Muhammad. He entered to see him and congratulated him and said: ‘O Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.a), there is brotherhood between me and Fitrus, and he asked me to ask you to supplicate to Allah for him to restore his wings.’

Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.a) said: ‘Will you do it?’ He said, ‘Yes.’ Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.a) presented to him the Wilayah of Amirul Momineen (a.s), and he accepted it. Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.a) said: ‘Your concern is with the cradle (of Husain). Wipe with it and wallow in it.’

He said: ‘Fitrus went to the cradle of Husain bin Ali and Messenger of Allah supplicated for him.’

He said: ‘Messenger of Allah said: ‘I looked at his feather and it emerged and the blood flowed from it, and it prolonged until it adhered to his other wing, and he ascended along with Jibraeel to the sky and came to his place.”

Incident of Ibne Mahziyar Ahwazi

Ali Ibne Ibrahim bin Mahziyar narrates one year when the Hajj season arrived, I prepared for the journey and set out to Medina. When I reached Medina, I inquired from the people about the descendants of Imam Hasan Askari (a), but could not get any information. I was very much worried and at last set out for Mecca. 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: ...
