Overview
Ali ibn Yaqtin was with al-Mahdi at Masabadhan when he saw a dream of his death. 2
The report
Ali brought him loaves and cold meat. Then they noticed his weeping in the hall, where a man had stood by him and said: "I seem to see that this palace's people have perished." Al-Mahdi died only ten days afterwards. 2
Notes for researchers
- The report comes from "Muruj al-Dhahab" alone and needs an additional source.
