Command to travel

Miracles of Masoomeen
Abu Abdullah Ibne Salih says: “One year I went to Baghdad. (At first) I had asked permission to go but it had not been granted to me.

I set out in despair at catching it up. I reached Nahrawan and the caravan was still there. I only had time to feed my camel before the caravan set out and I set out with it. He (the Hidden Imam) had prayed for my safety. Therefore I came to no harm. Praise be to Allah.”
