I then said to the Imam, ‘I know, you do not forget me in your prayers.’ The Imam asked, ‘How did you find out?’ I said, ‘You pray for your Shi’a and I am your Shi’a.’ The Imam asked, ‘Did you find out by any means other than that?’ I said, ‘No.’ The Imam said, ‘If you like to know what I have for you, see what you have for me in your heart.’”
