1. My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh ibn Abǐ Khalaf, from Aĥmad ibn Muĥammad ibn ‘Isā, from Ĥusain ibn Sa’ǐd, from Naďr ibn Suwayd, from Yaĥyā Al-Ĥalabi, from Hārūn ibn Khārijah, from Abǐ Bašǐr, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Šādiq ) said: (One day) Jabra`ǐl came to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ while Ĥusain  was playing in front of him. Jabra`ǐl informed him that his nation would kill Ĥusain , so the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ became restless. Jabra`ǐl said, “Should I not show you the land on which he will be killed?” Then the land (between Karbalā and Madǐnah) sunk within the ground and the place where the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was sitting (in Madǐnah) and the land on which Ĥusain  was killed became attached to one another. Then Jabra`ǐl took some of the dust (of Karbalā). Thereafter, the earth returned to the way it (originally) was in less than a blink of an eye. The Prophet ﷺ left while saying, “Bliss for you, O dust! And bliss for those who will be killed 0n you!” Imam  continued: The companion of Sulaymān  (Āšaf ibn Barkhiyā) also did the same thing. He mentioned the Great Name of Allāh and the earth between Sulaymān’s bed and the throne (of Bilqǐs) sank within the ground. The earth and all of its flexible and inflexible parts sank within the ground, and Āšif lifted the throne (of Bilqǐs) before the two pieces of land were attached. So Sulaymān  said, “It looks like it (the throne of Bilqǐs) came out from under my bed.” Imam  added: Thereafter, the earth returned to the way it (originally) was in less than a blink of an eye.
