سَأَلْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ قَطْعِ السِّدْرِ فَقَالَ سَأَلَنِي رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِكَ عَنْهُ فَكَتَبْتُ إِلَيْهِ قَدْ قَطَعَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ ع سِدْراً وَ غَرَسَ مَكَانَهُ عِنَباً .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Abu Nasr who said, ‘I asked Abu Al-Hassan<sup>asws</sup> about cutting the lote (lotus) tree, so he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘A man from your companions did ask me<sup>asws</sup> about it, so I<sup>asws</sup> wrote to him: ‘Abu Al-Hassan<sup>asws</sup> had cut a lote tree and planted a grape-vines in its place’.
