كَانَ عِيسَى بْنُ أَعْيَنَ إِذَا حَجَّ فَصَارَ إِلَى الْمَوْقِفِ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى الدُّعَاءِ لِإِخْوَانِهِ حَتَّى يُفِيضَ النَّاسُ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ تُنْفِقُ مَالَكَ وَ تُتْعِبُ بَدَنَكَ حَتَّى إِذَا صِرْتَ إِلَى الْمَوْضِعِ الَّذِي تُبَثُّ فِيهِ الْحَوَائِجُ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَقْبَلْتَ عَلَى الدُّعَاءِ لِإِخْوَانِكَ وَ تَرَكْتَ نَفْسَكَ قَالَ إِنِّي عَلَى ثِقَةٍ مِنْ دَعْوَةِ الْمَلَكِ لِي وَ فِي شَكٍّ مِنَ الدُّعَاءِ لِنَفْسِي .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Muhammad Bin Isa Bin Ubeyd, from Ibn Abu Umer who said, ‘When Isa Bin Ayn went to Hajj, he went to the Pausing Station beginning upon the supplication for his brethren until the people departed. So I said to him, ‘You spend your wealth and exhaust your body until you come to the place in which needs are broadcasted to Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic, instead you come to supplicate for your brethren and neglect yourself?’ He said, ‘I am relying upon the supplication of the Angels for me, and am in doubt from the supplication for myself’.
