:'My father had recommended me before he set off for [[Iraq]], and had me vow a while before his martyrdom.'


Imam al-Sajjad (a) invited him to go to [[al-Hajar al-Aswad]] (the Black Stone), so that the [[Imam]] would be one to whom al-Hajar al-Aswad testifies. Doing so, Muhammad prayed and asked the Stone to testify to his Imama, but nothing happened. Imam al-Sajjad then, after saying prayer, asked so from the Stone, and the Stone uttered a testimony to the Imama of 'Ali b. al-Husayn (a) after his father, al-Husayn b. 'Ali (a), and thus, Muhammad b. al-Hanafiyya accepted his Imama.<ref>See: Saffar, ''Basa'ir al-darajat'', P.502; Ibn Babawayh, ''al-Imama wa l-tabsira'', P.60-62; Al-Kulayni, ''al-Kafi'', Vol.1, P.348</ref> Some scholars believe that this argumentation was just made up, so that weak [[Shi'a]]s would not incline to believe in the Imama of Muhammad b. al-Hanafiyya.<ref>Al-Rawandi, ''al-Khara'ij wa al-jara'ih'', Vol.1, P.258; al-Majlisi, ''Bihar al-anwar'', Vol.46, P.30</ref>
