The Sheikh served the guests. The Sheikh accepted it before them and praised his actions, saying to Al-Ahmar, "Your place is here." The Sheikh said, "I have not found anyone more generous than Ibn Al-Hawari and Al-Hazali." And from his piety, the King Badi Abu Rabath, King of Sinnar, gathered the elders, such as Shawwal, son of Aqfa, and Taqi, Sheikh of Hawsh Dar. Sheikh Idris said to them, "My Sheikh, and my house, from honey to onions, I will divide it for him by half." The Sheikh refused, saying, "This is the land of the Nubians, and you have taken it from them, so I will not accept it." The Prophet, peace be upon him, said, "Whoever takes a span of land unjustly will be encircled by it on the Day of Resurrection from seven earths." He said to them, "Give me intercession in all matters." So, whatever you ask of me, I will give it to you. Then Sheikh Idris entered Sinnar seventy-one times for the affairs of the Muslims. The Fifth Chapter (1) discusses what was revealed to him about the unseen. Al-Ghufrani said in Tabaqat Al-Awliya, "The cave of the saints is of two types: some look into the preserved tablet, which does not change, like our master Ali Al-Khawass and his like. Others look into the tablets of erasure and affirmation, and their number is sixty tablets, which change and are altered. If the saint informs, and what he says does not happen, he should not be denied. The reason for this is that it is said he lied, but rather it should be understood that he looked into the tablets of erasure and affirmation." And from the news of Sheikh Idris (2) Al-Wata'ab, the infidels, about the unseen, his wife and son Hamad said to him, "I woke up sick with pain, and it is numbness in the skin that disappears." Al-Wata'ab (2) said to her, "It is not a worm that has entered your belly, my son Barakat, it is written on the tablet." And from it, through stories and the flow of blood, he entered Tuti and informed of the purification of Al-Haj Khawjali, saying, "He will appear on this island and he will have a great matter." And a man of good character named Hamad Al-Faqir said to him, "Your son is good." He replied, "Good, and the man has no daughter." People told him, "You are lying and saying she is good." She said, "If he is not revealed, then I am not." He did not say such a thing, and it happened as he said. A daughter was born to that man. He said to Sheikh Abu Idris, "Marry Umm Hussein, daughter of Al-Haj Salama Al-Ghany. I will bring my son and make him present." And it happened as he said. And from it, he informed Al-Haj Saeed, saying, "The Messenger, peace be upon him, says to you, 'Son of Daf' Allah, build a mosque.'" He said, "I am an infidel. The Messenger does not come to me and order me to do that." And he swore by divorce that he had not seen the Messenger, peace be upon him, and ordered him to do so, so he did not build. Then he saw the Messenger of God, peace be upon him, and he ordered him to build this mosque, and he built it. And from it are the news of Sheikh Saghirun when his son Sheikh Al-Zein was brought to visit him. Al-Zein said to him, "I will live longer than you and have more knowledge than you." And it happened as he said. Qatada said that Sheikh Saghirun resided in the house of Abu Ab Hashar for ten years, and Al-Zein's caliphate was fifty years. And from it is his informing Al-Faqih Ali and Walad Abu Nailah when he came from Egypt that he had seven riyals.
