    Bahaismiran:

One of the anecdote which has been written against Sheikh Ahmad is the adventure of Sheikh with late author of the book “Jawaher” : "… Once upon a time, Sheikh Ahmad went to Najaf.

Sheikh Muhammad Hassan, the author of the book "Jawaherul Kalam" was skillful in dispute and argument' although he was specialized in religious jurisprudence; so that, it was too difficult for everybody to overcome him. So, Sheikh Muhammad Hassan wanted to discover the fact that Sheikh Ahmad is able to figure out that a statement is said by Imam or not. So, Sheikh Muhammad Hassan –May God have mercy on him- forged a tradition and used ponderous words in it. He wrote the forged tradition in a piece of paper. He rubbed soot on it to be appeared rally old. Then, he went to Sheikh and said: "I have found a tradition. Observe it to know it is a tradition or not and what it means." Sheikh Ahmad took it and studied and said to Sheikh Muhammad Hassan: It is the statement of imam. Then, he justified it. Then, Sheikh Muhammad Hassan took it and went out and torn.[1]"

     Pointing out the position of Sheikh Ahmad in Isfahan, Seyyed Jalaluddin Ashtiyani writes: "Although Sheikh Ahmad Ehsaee is known as an ascentic person and Hajj Sabzewari has said about him that he had been unique in ascenticism but other scholars from Isfahan were more knowledgeable than him. However he had been worldly and loved to have more disciples. Also, passion and being worldly intrigued him to travel to various cities and to enter into philosophy and Gnosticism without specialization.[2]

     The author of "Rowdhat" book had adverse ideas about the followers of Sheikism cult because he believed that Sheikh Rajab Barasi and his followers were extremely against Islam.
