A vision of the mountain of Afgbestin, which was seen by a man named Abdallah.

The mountain, did it come true?

44 A vision of the mountain of Afgbestin, which was seen by a man named Abdallah.

Hamaam Al-Wadi, son of Abu Abdallah, was a man of great piety. He went to the people and said to them: "I have seen a vision in my sleep. I saw a man with a white beard, and he was wearing a white garment. He was standing on the mountain of Afgbestin. He said to me: 'O Abu Abdallah, I have a message for you. You must go to the people and tell them that I have sent you to them. You must tell them that I have sent you to them to warn them of a great danger that is coming upon them. You must tell them that they must repent and turn to God, and that they must not worship idols.'"

Abu Abdallah went to the people and told them what he had seen. The people did not believe him. They said that he was a madman. Abu Abdallah was very sad. He went back to his home and prayed to God.

The next day, Abu Abdallah went back to the people. He told them again what he had seen. This time, the people listened to him. They said that they would repent and turn to God.

Abu Abdallah was very happy. He said to the people: "God has forgiven you. You must now live in peace and harmony."

The people lived in peace and harmony. They never forgot the vision of the mountain of Afgbestin.
