Brief Explanation
Benefit: Janab Mutarrif says that I traveled with Sayyiduna Imran bin Husayn radi Allahu anhu from Kufa to Basra; there were very few stops where we dismounted and he did not recite poetry. And he also said that speaking in allusions and indirect expressions is a means of avoiding lies. (Al-Adab Al-Mufrad: 857, and its chain is authentic)
