It is narrated from Hazrat Naeem bin Abi Hind that Hazrat Abu Masood Ansari left Kufa with drops of water dripping from his head (due to having performed ghusl) and he intended to put on ihram. People requested him to advise them. He said: O people! Consider your own opinion as doubtful. I saw myself that I was determined to strike with my sword in disobedience to Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). People requested him again to advise them. He said: It is obligatory upon you to fear Allah and to be patient until the righteous person attains relief or relief is attained from the wicked one.
