Shroud for Hasan bin Nadhr

It is narrated from Ali bin Muhammad from Saad Ibne Abdullah Ashari that he said: Hasan Ibne Nadhr and Abu Saddam and a number of men talked after the demise of Imam Hasan Askari (a) about the money and the assets that were at the hands of the representatives as religious dues. They wanted to investigate the matter.

Hasan Ibne Nadhr came to Abu Saddam and said: “I want to go to Hajj.” Abu Saddam said: “Delay it this year.” “I am frightened in my sleeps,” said Hasan, “and I must go.” He conferred to Ahmad Ibne Yala Ibne Himad and the men of the vicinity his final will with respect to some wealth of his and asked him not to give anything away except to the Imam’s hand after his rise. Hasan said: When I reached Baghdad, I rented a house and stayed there.

One of the representatives came to me and brought me garments and dinars and placed them with me. I asked, “What are these?” He said: “It is what you see.” Then another representative came and did the same; and then another, until the house was full.

Then Ahmad Ibne Ishaq brought me all of the Khums that he was holding. As I was perplexed and was thinking what to do, his letter came to me, which said that when such and such time passes from the day, I had to bring the commodities. I left with the goods. There was a bandit on the road who robbed the road along with sixty other men. I passed his area and Allah protected me from him.

I reached Askar and disembarked; a letter came to me ordering me to bring the goods. I put them in two baskets of porters. When I reached the entrance hall of the house, there was a black man standing. He asked, “Are you Hasan Ibne Nadhr?” I said: “Yes.” He said: “Enter.” I entered the house and then a room and emptied the baskets of the porters. In one corner of the room, there was a big number of breads; each one of the porters were given two loaves and were allowed to leave.

There was one room and a curtain draped over it. A call came from it, “O Hasan Ibne Nadhr, thank Allah for His favors over you and complain not, for Satan loves that you complain.” Two garments were brought to me and I was told, “Take them, for you will need them.” I took the garments and left.

Saad said: Hasan Ibne Nadhr returned and died in the month of Ramadan and was buried in the two garments.
