Sayyiduna Imran bin Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) on a she-camel and tied it at the door, then went inside. Some people of Banu Tamim came to him (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Accept the glad tidings." They said: "We have accepted, now give us something." So he (peace and blessings be upon him) turned away from them. Then some people from Yemen came, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Accept the glad tidings, and do not say as Banu Tamim said." They said: "We have accepted; now tell us about the beginning of this matter." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah existed and there was nothing besides Him, and His Throne was upon the water." Then a man came and said: "O Ibn Husayn, look after your she-camel." So I went and caught up with it in the mirage. By Allah, I wish I had just left it.
