John Shaqi

رَأَيْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَا مَا شَاءَ النَّاسُ فَلَمَّا انْتَهَى إِلَى الْقَبْرِ تَنَحَّى فَجَلَسَ فَلَمَّا أُدْخِلَ الْمَيِّتُ لَحْدَهُ قَامَ فَحَثَا عَلَيْهِ التُّرَابَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ بِيَدِهِ .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Dawood Bin Al Numan who said, ‘I saw Abu Al Hassan<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘Whatever Allah<sup>azwj</sup> so Desires and not what the people desire’. So when he<sup>asws</sup> ended up to the grave, he<sup>asws</sup> isolated himself<sup>asws</sup> and sat down. So when the deceased was entered into his chasm (<span class="iTxt">Lahad</span>), he<sup>asws</sup> stood up and spread the soil upon him, three times, by his<sup>asws</sup> hand’.
