27. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from Fadalah ibn Ayyub from al-‘Ala’ from a man who has said the following:

“Abu ‘Abd Allah , has said that the least with which a pilgrim, whose Hajj is not accepted, returns is safety of his family and property at home.” I (the narrator) then asked, ‘What kind of thing is this safety?’ He (the Imam) replied, ’Nothing will happen to them except things that may happen during his presence in his family and belongings.’”
