Miracle 95: Cure for the Blind, the Cripple and the Leper

Hazrat Imam Jafar Sadiq (a.s.) narrates,

‘Mailk al-Ashtar entered to see Imam Ali (a.s.). He greeted, and he (a.s.) responded to him.

Then Ameerul Mominen (a.s.) said, ‘What made you see me at this time?’ He said, ‘Your love, O Ameerul Momineen (a.s.)!’

He (a.s.) said: ‘Did you see anyone at my door?’ He said, ‘Yes, four persons’. Al-Ashtar went out with him (a.s.) and there was one blind from birth, and one having lost his sight, and a cripple, and a leper.

He (a.s.) said: ‘What are you all doing over here?’ They said, ‘We have come to you due to what is with us’.He (a.s.) came back inside, opened a container and removed a yellow paper and read it to them.

All of them got up from without having any illness anymore’.1
