Abu Ja’far Muhammad bin Walid says: When Imam Ali Reza (a) came to Baghdad I wrote a letter to him in which I mentioned that I intended to travel to Egypt for trade; so would it be profitable for me?
He replied: Stay here as long as Allah wants.
So I continued to live in Baghdad for two years. Then again I wrote to him inquiring about my desire to move to Egypt for business. Imam (a) replied,
“You may go now; God will give you felicity.”
So I travelled to Egypt and after I left, great strife developed in Baghdad, but by the grace of God I remained safe.
