The chaff turned into gold coins

Ammara bin Zaid says: I requested to Imam Ali Reza (a) to help a poor man.

Imam (a) gave me a bundle of chaff and asked me to deliver it to the door of that person.

Though I was ashamed to deliver such a worthless object to that man, I could not ignore the Imam’s orders. So I carried that to the man’s house and told him that the Imam has sent it.

When that man opened the sack in my presence instead of chaff, we saw it filled with gold coins through which not only that man was helped but it sufficed them for many generations.

The following day I went to Imam Ali Reza (a) and said,

“Maula, the chaff you gave yesterday changed into gold coins.”

He said, “That is why we sent it.”

It is narrated from Huzaifah bin Usaid Ghiffari who said: When Hasan bin Ali bade farewell to Muawiyah and left for Medina, I accompanied him in his journey, and there was a loaded camel in front of him, not separating from him wherever he headed. One day I said to him, ‘May I be sacrificed for you, O Abu Muhammad! This luggage, you do not separate from it wherever you are headed.’ He said: ‘O Huzaifah! Do you know what it is?’ I said, ‘No.’ He said: ‘This is the register.’ I said, ‘A register of what?’ He said: ‘Register of our Shias wherein are their names.’ I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you! Show me my name.’ He said: ‘Come in the morning.’ He said: ‘I went to him in the morning and with me was a nephew of mine, and he was literate and I could not read. He said: ‘What have you come for in the morning?’ I said, ‘The need which you promised me.’ He said: ‘Who is that youth with you?’ I said, ‘A nephew of mine, and he is literate, and I am not.’ He (the narrator) said, ‘He said to me: ‘Be seated!’ So, I sat down. He said: ‘Get me the middle register.’ I came with it.’ The youth looked and there were names listed. While he was reading, he said, ‘O uncle! Here is my name!’ I said, ‘May your mother be bereft of you! Look where my name is.’ He turned a page, then said, ‘There is your name.’ So, we cheered, and the youth was martyred with Husain bin Ali” Reference: Basairud Darajaat, Pg. 172, Tr. 6, Miracles of Ahlulbayt (a.s. ) - Vol. 2.Pg.70
