Haji Ghulam Husayn, the tobacco seller informed me that: I heard from Aga Hajj Shaykh Muhammad Ja'far Mahallati that during the illness of Hujjat ul-Islam Late Haji Mirza Muhammad Hasan Shirazi some prominent scholars were gathered around his bed and saying: Many religious persons have performed supplications in holy places like the tomb of Imam Husayn ('a) and other holy places, especially Kufa Masjid and have prayed to Allah for your health. In addition to this, excessive charity has also been given for your well-being. We believe that the Almighty Allah will cure you with the blessings of supplications and charity and keep you in health in order to benefit the Muslims.

The Late Mirza responded with a statement, which apparently showed that his destined death has arrived and that it was now necessary to leave the world. He said: These mediations cannot block the definite wisdom of Almighty Allah.
