١٢-٣٩ حدثنا أبي رضي الله عنه قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله بن أبي خلف قال: حدثني يعقوب بن يزيد، عن حماد بن عيسى، عن عبد الله بن مسكان، عن أبان بن تغلب، عن سليم بن قيس الهلالي، عن سلمان الفارسى - رحمه الله - قال: دخلت على النبي صلى الله عليه وآله وإذا الحسين عليه السلام على فخذيه وهو يقبل عينيه ويلثم فاه، وهو يقول: أنت سيد ابن سيد، أنت إمام ابن إمام أبوالائمة، أنت حجة ابن حجة أبوحجج تسعة من صلبك، تاسعهم قائمهم
12-39 (The compiler of the book narrated) that his father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Sa’ed ibn Abdullah ibn Abi Khalaf quoted Yaqoob ibn Yazid, on the authority of Hammad ibn Isa, on the authority of Abdullah ibn Miskan, on the authority of Aban ibn Taqlib, on the authority of Salim ibn Qays al-Hilaly, on the authority of Salman al-Farsi - may God have Mercy upon him, “I went to see the Prophet (MGB) when he (MGB) was holding Al-Hussein (MGB) on his lap; was kissing him in between the eyes and on the lips; and saying, ‘You are the Master! The son of the Master! You are the Divine Leader! You are the son of a Divine Leader! You are the father of the Divine Leaders! You are the Proof! You are the son of a Proof! You are the son of the Proofs!: Nine Proofs who will be of your progeny! The ninth of them will be the Riser (MGB)!’”
