Effect of the Imam’s curse

Miracles of Masoomeen
Muhammad Ibne Sinan said: “Once I went to see Abul Hasan (a).
He said, “O Muhammad, has something happened to the family of Faraj (the governor of Medina)?”
I said, “Yes, Umar (a member of Faraj family) has died.”
Imam (a) said, “All thanks and praise belongs to Allah.”
He said it twenty four times. I then said, “My master had I known it would make you this happy I would have come to running and bare foot with the news (to congratulate you).”
Imam (a) said, “Do you not know what he –may Allah condemn him – once had said to Muhammad Ibne Ali, my father?”
The narrator said that I said, “No, I do not know it.”
Imam (a) said, “He spoke to my father about an issue and then said, “I think you are drunk.”
My father said, “O Lord, if you know that I have been fasting this day, then make him test the taste of a war, and the humiliation of captivity.”
By Allah, in just a few days his belongings were looted and he was captured and now he is dead – may Allah deprive him of His mercy. Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most gracious, has exacted revenge from him and He continues to exact revenge for His friends from His enemies.

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: ...
