Mention of Those Who Saw the qa'im, Beheld Him, and Spoke with Him
1- حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ الْفَرَجِ الْمُؤَذِّنُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْكَرْخِيُّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هَارُونَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا يَقُولُ رَأَيْتُ صَاحِبَ الزَّمَانِ ع وَ وَجْهُهُ يُضِيءُ كَأَنَّهُ الْقَمَرُ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ وَ رَأَيْتُ عَلَى سُرَّتِهِ شَعْراً يَجْرِي كَالْخَطِّ وَ كَشَفْتُ الثَّوْبَ عَنْهُ فَوَجَدْتُهُ مَخْتُوناً فَسَأَلْتُ أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ ع عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ هَكَذَا وُلِدَ وَ هَكَذَا وُلِدْنَا وَ لَكِنَّا سَنُمِرُّ الْمُوسَى عَلَيْهِ لِإِصَابَةِ السُّنَّةِ.
1 - Narrated to us Ali bin Hasan bin Faraj Muezzin رضي الله عنه: Narrated to us Muhammad bin al-Hasan Karkhi: Abu Harun - a person who belongs our school of thought - said:
“I saw His Eminence, the Master of the Age while his face shone like a full moon and I saw a line of hair on his navel. When I removed the cover I saw that he was circumcised. I asked Abu Muhammad عليه السلام about it and he said: This is way he was born and this the way we all (Imams) are born. But we moved the knife over him just in keeping up with the practice.”
