Information of the unseen

It is narrated on the authority of Abdullah Ibne Mughira that:

I was one of the Waqafites and went on a pilgrimage to Mecca having the same belief. Once I reached Mecca, I wondered whether my belief was correct or not. So I sought refuge next to the Moltazam wall and said, ‘O my God! You know what I want and wish for. Please guide me to the best religion.’

Then it occurred to me to visit Reza (a). I went to Medina, stood at the door of Reza’s house and told his servant, ‘Go and tell your Master that a man from Iraq is waiting at the door and wants permission to enter.’

I heard Reza’s voice from within the house saying, ‘O Abdullah Ibne Mughira! Come in.’ 

I entered. When Reza (a) saw me, he said, ‘God accepted your prayer and guided you towards His Religion.’

I said, ‘I bear witness that you are the Proof of God and the Trustee of God for His creatures.’

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: ...
