42. Bestowal Of Amir ul-Mu’minin ('A) 1
The learned research scholar, Aga Mirza, from whom Muhammad Shirazi has narrated stories 5 to 9 said:
Shaykh Muhammad Husayn Juhrami, a prominent scholar of Najaf al-Ashraf and a student of Murtaza Kashmiri (may Allah exalt his position) entered into some transaction with a perfumer of Najaf al-Ashraf. Many times he took interest-free loans from him and when he received some payments he cleared his debts. Once he did not get enough funds to repay the creditor after which he went to him and asked for some more loans. He said: Aga, you have taken too much, I cannot give you more.
The Shaykh was deeply disturbed and he went to the holy mausoleum of Amir ul-Mu’minin ('a) and complained: I am in your neighborhood and refuge. ·
After some days a Juhrami person came and giving him a money bag said: I am supposed to hand over this to you, and it is now yours. The Shaykh took the money and immediately went to the perfumer deciding that after repaying his debts, he would spend the remainder on such and such need. He asked the perfumer: How much do I owe you? He said: Too much. The Shaykh said: I want to repay the complete amount.
So the perfumer brought out his register, made calculations and told him the amount he owed. (the Late Mirza mentioned the amount to me, but I have forgotten). The Shaykh handed him the purse and said: Take your receivable and return the balance. The perfumer counted the money before him and said: Neither a cent is less nor a cent more.
The Shaykh returned empty-handed and again entered the holy mausoleum and said: The apparent meaning of my request is not the final word. 1 didn't say that I don't want more than what I owed. O Master, I have so and so need.
When he emerged from the mausoleum, he received an amount enough to fulfill his need.
