Grant my son a long righteous and healthy life.’ My father prayed for me at the time of his death, ‘O Allah (عَزَّوَجَلَّ)! Enable my son to worship in such a place where satan cannot interfere.’

After the burial of my beloved father, I came to the seashore where I saw this oceanic dome and entered it. Meanwhile, an angel came and took this dome to the bottom of the ocean. On the enquiry of Sayyidunā Sulaymān عَـلٰى نَبِـيِّـنَا وَ عَـلَيْـهِ الـصَّلٰوة ُ وَالـسَّلَام, the young man said, ‘I came here in the blessed age of Sayyidunā Ibrāĥīm Khalīlullāĥ عَـلٰى نَبِـيِّـنَا وَ عَـلَيْـهِ الـصَّلٰوة ُ وَالـسَّلَام.’ Sayyidunā Sulaymān عَـلٰى نَبِـيِّـنَا وَ عَـلَيْـهِ الـصَّلٰوة ُ وَالـسَّلَام realized that he had been living in the oceanic dome for two thousand years but he was still young. Not a single hair of his head had turned white.

Regarding his food, he said, ‘Every day a green bird brings something yellow in its beak. I eat it. It has the taste of all the bounties of the world. It satisfies my hunger and thirst. In addition, I remain safe from heat, cold, sleep, laziness, drowsiness, loneliness, fear and horrors, اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ’. Then, on the request of the young man and the order of Sayyidunā Sulaymān          عَـلٰى نَبِـيِّـنَا وَ عَـلَيْـهِ الـصَّلٰوة ُ وَالـسَّلَام, Āṣif Bin Barkhiyā رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه picked the oceanic dome up and took it back to the seabed. Thereafter, Sayyidunā Sulaymān عَـلٰى نَبِـيِّـنَا وَ عَـلَيْـهِ الـصَّلٰوة ُ وَالـسَّلَام said, ‘O people! May Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ shower His mercy upon all of you! Did you notice how greatly the prayers of parents are answered! Refrain from disobeying your parents.’ (Rauḍ-ur-Riyāḥīn, pp. 233)
