Hadith 1509
Hadith.1515 - It is narrated from Ali ibn Mahziyar who said
"I wrote to Abu Ja'far (as) and complained to him about the frequent earthquakes in Ahwaz and asked him, 'Do you think I should move away from there?' He (as) wrote back, 'Do not move away from there. Fast on Wednesday, Thursday, and Jumu’ah, perform ghusl (ritual purification), purify your clothes, and go out on Jumu’ah to pray to Allah (swt), for He will lift it (the earthquakes) from you.' Ali ibn Mahziyar continued, 'We did as he instructed, and the earthquakes subsided.'"
1515 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ قَالَ
كَتَبْتُ إِلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ وَ شَكَوْتُ إِلَيْهِ كَثْرَةَ اَلزَّلاَزِلِ فِي اَلْأَهْوَازِ وَ قُلْتُ تَرَى لِيَ اَلتَّحْوِيلَ عَنْهَا فَكَتَبَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ «لاَ تَتَحَوَّلُوا عَنْهَا وَ صُومُوا اَلْأَرْبِعَاءَ وَ اَلْخَمِيسَ وَ اَلْجُمُعَةَ وَ اِغْتَسِلُوا وَ طَهِّرُوا ثِيَابَكُمْ وَ اُبْرُزُوا يَوْمَ اَلْجُمُعَةِ وَ اُدْعُوا اَللَّهَ فَإِنَّهُ يَرْفَعُ عَنْكُمْ» قَالَ فَفَعَلْنَا فَسَكَنَتِ اَلزَّلاَزِلُ.
