Information of the future

It is narrated from Washsha from Musafir who has said:

When Harun Ibne Musayyab decided to fight Muhammad Ibne Ja’far, Abul Hasan (a) told me to go to him and say, “Do not go out tomorrow. If do so you will be defeated and your people will be killed.”

If he would ask, “How do you know that?” Say, “I saw it in my dream.”

The narrator said that he went to him and said, “May I be sacrificed on you, do not go out tomorrow to fight. If you do you will be defeated and your people will be killed.”

He asked, “How do you know this?”

I said, “I saw it in my dream.”

He said, “A slave goes to sleep (to dream) and his behind is not even washed. He went out to fight. He was defeated and his people were killed.”

The narrator said that Musafir narrated: I was in the presence of Reza (a) in Mina, Mecca that Yahya Ibne Khalid passed by and he covered his head from the dust.

Imam (a) said, “Poor people do not know what will happen to them this year.”

I, by Allah, could not understand the meaning of his statement until we buried him (Yahya Ibne Khalid).

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: ...
