Trustworthy and equitable scholar, Hajj Ali Aga Salman, whose honesty is acknowledged by all, may God keep him in health, said:

Once I got a sore in fork of my thigh. It was extremely painful and it was very difficult to walk up to the hospital. One night, when I arose for the Midnight Prayer, I perceived a terrible stench and on checking, found that it was coming from that same wound. I was highly distressed and I begged the Almighty Lord to do something about it. I said: I have spent my life as a follower of Islam and cultivated the love of Muhammad and Aale Muhammad ('a). Please don't allow me to be involved in this illness and compel me to refer to those who are beyond the pale of Islam. In other words, so emotional I became that I swooned and when I regained senses, I found that it was already morning. I regretted not having prayed the Midnight Prayer and after that I came downstairs hurriedly to perform purifications and ablutions.

Now realization dawned that I had come down so fast. I saw that the pain in my leg was no more. I placed my hand at the affected spot, but yet there was no pain. I came into light to examine the wound. but not a sign was visible and not even its location was found. There was no difference between the previously affected leg and the right healthy leg.

Hajj Ali Aga said: I encountered many other incidents like this, in which I or my kindred were involved in a serious illness or a serious problem and the Almighty Allah gave us relief through supplications and mediation of the Infallibles. The above incident is an example.
