66 – Al-Ḥusayn narrated to us; ʿAbd Allah narrated to us; Muhammad ibn al-Ḥusayn said, “Khalaf ibn Ismaʿil narrated to me, saying: I heard one of these bedridden sufferers declare: ‘By Your majesty, even if You commanded the crawling creatures to tear me to morsels, through Your enabling grace I would only become more patient, and through Your favor and praiseworthiness I would feel nothing but contentment with You.’” Khalaf added: “Leprosy had already consumed his hands, his feet, and most of his body.”
