Hazrat Hujayr bin al-Rabi‘ says: Hazrat ‘Imran bin Husayn said to me,“Go to your people and stop them from hastening in this matter.”I said,“I am appointed among them, but I am not their leader.”Hazrat ‘Imran bin Husayn said,“Convey this message from me to them: If I were an Abyssinian slave, defective, herding sheep on the top of a mountain until death overtook me, this would be more beloved to me than that I shoot an arrow in either of the two ranks, whether I hit the mark or err.”
