٤ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَسْبَاطٍ عَنْ عَمِّهِ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ سَالِمٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنِ الْكَاهِلِيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ إِنَّ يَعْقُوبَ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) لَمَّا ذَهَبَ مِنْهُ بِنْيَامِينُ نَادَى يَا رَبِّ أَ مَا تَرْحَمُنِي أَذْهَبْتَ عَيْنَيَّ وَأَذْهَبْتَ ابْنَيَّ فَأَوْحَى الله تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى لَوْ أَمَتُّهُمَا لأحْيَيْتُهُمَا لَكَ حَتَّى أَجْمَعَ بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَهُمَا وَلَكِنْ تَذْكُرُ الشَّاةَ الَّتِي ذَبَحْتَهَا وَشَوَيْتَهَا وَأَكَلْتَ وَفُلانٌ وَفُلانٌ إِلَى جَانِبِكَ صَائِمٌ لَمْ تُنِلْهُ مِنْهَا شَيْئاً.
4. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ali ibn Asbat from h is uncle Ya’qub ibn Salim from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “I heard Abu ‘Abdillah  saying, ‘When Benjamin also was taken away from Jacob, he pleaded before Allah for help, saying, “Have mercy on me. You have taken away my eyesight and my son.” Allah, the Most Blessed, the Most High, sent him inspiration, “Even if I will cause them to die I will give them life again for you so you will live with them, however, remember the sheep that you slaughtered, you and so and so used it for food and so and so in your neighborhood was fasting but he receive nothing from it.’””
