### [13.113.2](https://indike.org/pramana/inf.isl.ar.rihla.ibn-battuta~en-mt.13.113.2)

I went with them to the shaykh and reached his hospice outside the cave; there is no habitation near it. The people of that country, Muslim and infidel alike, come to visit him, bringing gifts and presents, from which the faqīrs and visitors eat; as for the shaykh, he limits himself to a cow on whose milk he breaks his fast after ten days, as we have said. When I came in to him he rose to me, embraced me, and asked me about my country and my travels, and I told him. He said to me: "You are the traveller of the Arabs!" Those of his companions who were present said to him: "And of the Persians, our master!" He said: "And of the Persians. Treat him with honour." So they carried me to the hospice and entertained me for three days.
