Ubaydallah from Abi Ja’far Muhammad b. Ali b. al-Husayn b. Babawayh from Muhammad b. al-Hasan b. al-Walid from Muhammad b. al-Hasan al-Saffar from Muhammad b. al-Husayn b. Abi al-Khattab from Muhammad b. Abi Umayr from Ishaq b. Ammar who said: Aba Abdillah Ja’far b. Muhammad عليهما السلام wrote a letter of condolence to Abdallah b. al-Hasan – may Allah be pleased with him – for what had happened to him when he was deported together with the people of his household: In the name of Allah the Beneficent the Merciful, to the righteous successor and the pure descendant from the son of his brother and uncle: now then, if you and the people of your house who were deported together with you are alone in that which has befallen you, then know that you are not alone in grief, anger, sadness and pain of a suffering heart, for I too have been touched with anxiety, worry and the heat of tribulation [for what has happened to you] as has touched you … So I recommend you – O uncle and the son of an uncle, the children of my uncles and my brothers – towards patience, acceptance, submission and leaving the matter to Allah Mighty and Majestic. Be accepting and patient over His decree, holding on to His obedience, alighting as per His order. May Allah pour upon you and us patience. May He conclude for you and us with reward and felicity. May He save you and us from every peril. By His Might and Power. Verily He is All-Hearing Near. May Allah send blessings on his select among his creation Muhammad the prophet and the people of his House.
