4. Ali ibn Muhammad has narrated from Sa‘id ibn ‘Abdallah who has said the following. “Al-Hassan ibn al-Nadr and abu Sidam and a group of people, after abu Muhammad (a.s.) had passed away would discuss about the property (of religious dues) in their possession and how to find out (as to who should they give it). Al-Hassan ibn al-Nadr came to abu Sidam and said, “I want to go for Hajj this year.” Abu Sidam said, “Postpone it this year.” Al-Hassan ibn al-Nadr said, “I experience nightmare in my sleep. I must go this year for Hajj.” He prepared his will and appointed Ahmad ibn Ya‘li ibn Hammad as the executor of his will. He said in his to pay a certain amount of money to the holy location with his own hand into his (the Imam’s) own hand after he would appear in public. The narrator has said that al-Hassan has said, “When I arrived in Baghdad I rented a house and certain persons of the representatives came to me with cloths and Dinars and left them with me. I asked them, “What is it?” He said, “It is as you know what it is.” Others also came to me with such properties until the house was filled up. Then Ahmad ibn Ishaq came with all that was with him. I was astonished and remained thinking. A letter came to me from the man (a.s.) that said, “When it will be come such and such hours of the day then take all (money/ property) is with you.” I then left with that was with me and on the way there was a robber that looted the travelers with his sixty men thieves. I passed him safely by the help of Allah. I arrived at the army camp and stopped there. A letter came that told me to take everything along with me. I loaded every thing in the carriages of the porters and when I reach the corridor a black man standing there. He asked, “Are you al-Hassan ibn al-Nadr?” I said, “Yes, I am he.” He then said, “Enter.” I then entered the house and then a room and unloaded the goods from the carriages of the porters therein. In a corner of the room there was a large quantity of bread. He gave two loaves to each of the porters and told them to leave. Then I found out that there was a room behind the curtain and someone called me therefrom. “O al-Hassan ibn al-Nadr, thank Allah for the favor that He has done to you and do not complain. Satan loves that you would doubt. He gave me two pieces of cloths and said, “Take these because you will soon need them.” I took them and left.” Sa‘d has said, “Al-Hassan ibn Nadr came back, died in the month of Ramadan and was shrouded in the pieces of cloths.”
