(9) Muhammad bin Ya’qoob narrated from some of his companions from Sa’d bin Abdullah that Ayyoob bin Noah had said: “I said to Abul Hasan ar-Redha : “We hope that you are the man of the matter and that Allah may pave the way to you peacefully and without fighting. Homage has been paid to you and money is coined with your name.” He said: “None of us that letters has been sent to, has been pointed at with fingers, has been asked about religious matters and monies (legal religious rights) have been sent to, unless he is killed or he dies in his bed until Allah will send for this matter a boy from our progeny, whose birth and early life will be unknown but his lineage will be not unknown.”
