Arabic text

89- ووجدت بخط الشريف الأجل الرضي أبي الحسن محمد بن الحسين الموسوي رضي الله عنه تعليقا في تقاويم جمعها مؤرخا بيوم الأحد الخامس عشر من المحرم سنة إحدى وثمانين وثلاثمائة أنه ذكر له حال شيخ في باب الشام قد جاوز المائة وأربعين سنة، فركبت إليه حتى تأملته وحملته إلى القرب من داري بالكرخ وكان أعجوبة شاهد الحسن بن علي بن محمد بن علي الرضا عليهم السلام أبا القائم عليه السلام ووصف صفته… إلى غير ذلك من العجائب التي شاهدها،هذه حكاية خطه بعينها.

Translation

H 89 - I saw a writing of Sharif Ajal Razi Abul Hasan Muhammad bin Husain Musawi dated Sunday, 15th Mohurrum 331 A.H. in which he has mentioned the account of a long-lived man in Syria, who had crossed the age of 140 years. He says: I mounted my beast and went to him and found him after much endeavour. I met him near my house in Karkh and he was a wonder and had met Imam Hasan Askari (a.s), father of Imam Mahdi (a.s). Therefore he described the fine qualities of Imam (a.s). A wonder that was seen is an incident, which he has written in his own handwriting.
