He mounted with the clergyman and they set out. At the point when they arrived at the desert Hasan saw a tent of Byzantine brocade, secured with ropes of silk and brilliant stakes, set firm in the ground. He remained aside. Then, at that point, a powerful armed force, all furnished in the array of war, came out they surrounded the tent, said a couple of words, and left.

At last he kicked the bucket, and was covered in that tent. When consistently individuals come out to visit him. Initial a huge armed force circles the tent, and they say: "O ruler, if the present situation that has occurred for you had come to fruition in war, we would have all forfeited our lives for you, to deliver you back. Yet, the situation that has occurred for you is on account of one against whom we can't battle, whom we can't challenge." This they say, and afterward return.
The logicians and the researchers approach, and say: "The present situation has been achieved by one against whom we can't do anything through learning and theory, science and fallacy. For every one of the logicians of the world are frail before him, and all the learned are uninformed next as far as anyone is concerned.

Hasan of Basra and Abu Amr
It is connected that Abu Amr, the main expert on the perusing of the Koran, was showing the Koran one daywhen unexpectedly an attractive kid showed up to join hisclass. Abu Amr looked at the youngster inappropriately, and promptly he failed to remember the entire Koran, from the p of "Commendation" to the n of "jinn and men". A fire had him, and he lost all poise. In this state he approached Hasan of Basra and depicted to him his quandary. "Expert," he sobbed harshly, "such is the circumstance. I have failed to remember the entire Koran." Hasan was generally troubled to know about his circumstance. "Presently is the period of the journey," he said. "Proceed to play out the journey. At the point when you have done that, fix to the mosque of Khaif. There you will see an elderly person situated in the petition specialty. Try not to ruin his time, however let him be until he is separated. Then, at that point, request that he say a petition for you."

Some time elapsed, then, at that point, a man entered, clad in immaculate white robes. Individuals cleared a path before him, welcomed him, and bantered together. At the point when the hour of petition showed up, the man left and individuals withdrew with him, so the senior stayed alone. Abu Amr then, at that point, drawn nearer and recognized him.

Consistently he asks the evening petition in Basra and afterward comes here, chats with me, and gets back to Basra for the evening supplication. Any individual who has an imam like Hasan, for what reason would it be a good idea for him to ask me for a petition?"
Bravery of Hasan Basri (R)
Hasan Basri (R.A) was as much recognized for his ethical mental fortitude and un-complimented quest for equity as he was in the field of grant and conveying public addresses. He went against the then caliph, Yazid ibn Abdul Mãlik, in his essence when somebody asked Hasan Basri (R) to offer his viewpoint about the two uprisings, Yazid ibn al-Muhallab and Ibn al-Ash'ath. Hasan Basri (R) answered, "Don't be a party to one or the other gathering". A Syrian, springing upon his feet, rehashed the inquiry. "Also, not even to the Amir-ul-Mu'meneen?" Hasan Basri (R) answered furiously "Indeed, not even to the Amir-ul-Mu'meneen ."
In his youth Hazrat Hasan was sufficiently lucky to drink the water that was left in the cup by the Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (S.A.W.W). At the point when the Prophet knew about it he commented, "This kid will get from the Lord a measure of information comparable to the water inebriated."

Hazrat Hasan went in organization of the Sultan, the clergyman, and others. They entered a tremendous largeness. In it, they saw a grand tent repaired, which was monitored by armed force officials. The officials entered the tent and afterward came out. Then, at that point, they circumambulated it and disappeared. Some exceptionally old decent residents who, similar to the officials, entered the tent, expressed a few words, came out, circumambulated the tent and afterward disappeared followed them. Then, at that point, came some clinical specialists who did moreover. Then, at that point, came 200 incredibly wonderful youthful ladies, who entered the tent and went about as the past ones had done. Finally came the Sultan joined by his clergymen, he too entered the tent, articulated a few words, then, at that point, circumambulated the tent and disappeared. Astounded at the occurrence Hazrat Hasan asked of the clergyman what all that implied. The priest answered, "An extremely lovely and valiant child of Sultan passed on and his carcass is buried in a burial chamber on which stands that tent. Consistently we all visit it, and play out the services like the ones you saw today. To start with, the individuals from the military methodology the burial place and tending to the Price say, "If by our arms, we could save you from the God of Death, we would have forfeited our life for the satisfaction of that point, yet we are vulnerable." Then come the learned residents who say, "If our insight and experience could save you we ought to have certainly deflected thy passing, however before Death we are defenseless." Then come the clinical men, who say, "If our drugs could save you, we would have investigated every possibility to save you from the grip of Death, yet we were weak before it." Then come the lovely ladies who say, "If our magnificence and achievements could save you, we would have forfeited our everything to save you yet we were feeble before Death." Then enters the Sultan is turn joined by the pastors and says, "My child! We made an honest effort with our military, specialists, and different intends to save you, however no charge was conceivable in Divine regulation. We bid you great purchase now and will visit you home year as of now." This episode leaving such and permanent imprint on the psyche of Hazrat Hasan that he chose to pass the remainder of his life in petitions and love to confront that unavoidable end. He got back to Basra, surrendered his business, took to isolation, and promised never to grin in for what seems like forever. Additionally, for a long time he elapsed each second in petitions. The reason that made Hazrat Hasan most renowned was that in his life he felt just a single need—God. In his tension to meet God, he took worry of nothing other than Him.
At the point when Hazrat Ra'bia Basri would not come to go to the messages of Hazrat Hasan, he would convey no talk that day. Individuals in the crowd asked him for what good reason he did that. He answered, "The syrup that is held by the vessels mean for the elephants can't be held back in the vessels implied for the subterranean insects."
He was inquired, "What is Islam, and who is a Muslim?" He answered, "Islam is in the books and Muslim is in the burial chamber."
Hazrat Hasan said that four occurrences gave him the best illustrations of life:
•Once I pulled off the articles of clothing of and eunuch in simple fun. He said, "Generously return them to me, for no one knows my genuine state." Immediately the idea entered my thoughts: What will be our condition when on the Day of Judgment, we will be made stripped and every one of our transgressions expose?
•A boozer was battling in soil. I advised him to be careful in case he should soak in it. He answered, "Hasan, in the event that I fall I alone will endure. In any case, you deal with yourself. For in the event that you fall, all your assemblage will stand censured."
•A youngster was one day conveying a lit light. I asked him wherefrom he had brought the light. The youngster doused the light and said, "Advise me, where is the light gone?"
•A wonderful young lady was running one day along the road with her head revealed, and was grumbling with regards to her significant other in brutal terms. I advised her to cover her head and face. She said, "The affection for my significant other has caused me to lose my faculties such a lot of that I am not aware of my body and of my environmental elements. In the event that you had not revealed to me that my head and face were uncovered, I couldn't ever have known it. I would have strolled like that in the road. Nonetheless, it involves shock, O Hasan, that you profess to be an admirer of God, but are aware of all that crosses your direction and hold your faculties. How is this affection for God in you?"
