65-1 Tamim ibn Abdullah ibn Tamim al-Qurashi - may God be pleased with him - narrated that his father quoted on the authority of Ahmad ibn Ali al-Moshaya al-Madani who eulogized Ar-Ridha’  in the following elegy:O the shrine of the Master!No one else existed like the MasterGuidance perished after himAnd death followed it.O his shrine! May not God’s blessings upon you ever endEvery evening and every dawn, like a breeze;To us he was like a rain full of mercy;From which we were nourished.To us he was like a bright star;With whose light we could find our way.Then indeed sunk Ali ibn Musa Ar-Ridha’ in mireand sovereignty is with the unbeliever.O eyes, then I shall cry blood after himOver the extinction of glory and sovereignty!Also Ali ibn Abu Abdullah al-Khawwafi eulogized Ar-Ridha’  in the following poem:May God’s Grace water thee, O land of Toos!What treasures has your land down deep!In the world your land is known to be goodMade good by one in Sanabad asleep,A man whose murder was hard on IslamA man wrapped and drenched in God’s Mercy.O the grave of his (ar-Ridha’)! In thee clemency,Knowledge, purity, and glory abound.O envied grave! Angels do thee guard!
