ENGLISH TRANSLATION

5. Ali has narrated from abu Ahmad ibn Rashid from abu Hashim al-Ja‘fari who has said the following. “I requested abu Muhammad for something that I needed. He scratched the earth with his whip. The narrator has said that I think he then covered it with a handkerchief and then took out five hundred Dinars. He then said, “O abu Hashim take it and grants us pardon.”
