Imam Abu Muhammad (AS) perceived from behind the unseen that he would leave this life and go near his Lord. He said to his mother, ‘In the year two hundred and sixty I shall suffer bad fever from which I shall be afflicted…’

She was distressed, and sorrow overcame her. She began crying. Imam Abu Muhammad (AS) calmed her down saying, ‘The fate of Allah must take place. Do not worry…!’
In the year two hundred and sixty, he died as he had predicted.[1]
