6. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id and Muhammad ibn Yahya from Musa ibn al-Hassan from ‘Umar ibn Ali ibn ‘Amr ibn Yazid from Muhammad ibn ‘Umar from his brother al-Husayn from his father ‘Umar ibn Yazid who has said the following: “Once, when, I was with abu ‘Abd Allah, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, a man also was there. He said, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, I love children.’ He (the Imam) asked, ‘Why is it?’ He said, ‘I carry them on my back.’ Abu ‘Abd Allah, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, placed his hand on his forehead and turned his face away from him. The man cried and abu ‘Abd Allah, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, looked to him as if he sympathized and said, ‘When you go to your town buy a healthy camel and tie it down firmly then take a sword and slash its hump to take away its skin and sit on it as it is naturally hot.’ ‘Umar has said that the man said, ‘When I returned to my town I bought a healthy camel, tied it down firmly, took the sword and took away its skin and sat on it as it was naturally warm and on the back of the camel from me fell something like a small frog (lizard) and my problem calmed down.’”
