Gift of Haj Hasan Ali Nakhodki to Imam Rahal

It has been narrated from Ayatollah Agha Musa Shabiri Zanjani that : On a trip when Imam Khomeini (RA) and my father went to visit holy Mashhad.

 In the courtyard of the shrine of Imam Reza (a.s.) they meet the seeker of God, Haj Hasan Ali Nakhodki. The Imam of the Ummah (may Allah be pleased with him) who was not more than thirty to forty years old at that time, considers the time as a treasure and tells them that I have a word with you. Hajj Hassan Ali Nakhodki says: I am doing deeds, you are in the mausoleum of Har Ameli. Reh) Stay, I will come to you myself. After some time Haj Hasan Ali comes and says what are you doing?

Addressing them, Imam (RA) turned to the dome and court of Imam Reza (AS) and said: You to this Imam Reza, if you give us alchemy too?

Haj Hassan Ali Nakhodki did not deny that he had knowledge (alchemy), but he said to the Imam (RA): If we give you “alchemy” and you gild the entire mountain, door and plain, do you promise to use it instead and Keep and do not use anywhere?

Imam Khomeini (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) who was full of honesty since his youth, bowed his head and thoughtfully said to him: No, I cannot make such a promise to you.

Haj Hasan Ali Nakhodaki, who heard this from the Imam (RA), turned to him and said:  Now that you cannot memorize “alchemy”, I will teach you better than alchemy, and that is:

After the obligatory prayers, you read the verse of al-Kursi once until “Hwal Ali al-Azeem”.

And then you say the praises of Fatima Zahra (pbuh).

After that, read Surah Tawheed three times

And then you say Salat three times: O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad

And then the blessed verse three times: And I fear Allah, and I will protect the people. And my sustenance is incalculable, and I trust in Allah, for it is the measure of Allah, the adult of the matter, the height of Allah’s decree for the whole thing; (Talaq/2 and 3) (Whoever practices divine piety, God will provide him with a way of salvation and provide him with sustenance from where he does not expect, and whoever puts his trust in God will suffice him, God gives His command to He accomplishes, and God has set a measure for everything.) You read that this is better for you than chemistry.
