Knowledge of languages

It is narrated from Abu Hamza Naseer, the servant that he said:

I had heard many times Abu Muhammad (a) speak to each of his Roman, Turkish and Slavic slaves in their own languages.

It was astonishing to me and I would think that he is born in Medina and has not exposed to anyone until Abul Hasan passed away and no one saw him. How is this that he speaks such languages? I talking to myself that he came to me and said:

“Allah, the Most High, the Most Holy, grants distinction to the Imam over the other creatures in all matters. He gave them distinction in the matters of languages, knowledge of the genealogical issues, of the duration of lives and events. Without such distinctions there will be no difference between Imam and others.”

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
