MIRACLE 113 – GLAD TIDINGS AT THE TIME OF DEATH

Ali Bin Ahmad narrates that in the year three hundred and ninety-nine of the lunar calendar,

‘I went to see Abul Hasan Ali Al-Salamasy during his illness in which he died. I asked him about his state. He said, ‘I was overcome by unconsciousness. I saw my master Ameerul Momineen, Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (a.s.).

He held my hand and recited the below,

فَإِنَّ آلَ مُحَمَّدٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ غَرَّقَ جَهْلَهَا وَ سَفِينَتُهُمْ حَمَلَ الَّذِي طَلَبَ النَّجَاةَ وَ أَهْلَهَا		فَاقْبِضْ بِكَفِّكَ عُرْوَةً لَا تَخْشَ مِنْهَا فَصْلَهَا

Surely those ignorant of the progeny of Mohammed (s.a.w.a.) on the earth are drowned,

Their ship carries those who seek salvation and its rightful ones,

Then grab the strong rope with your hand, do not fear from it and connect with it.¹
