٣ - حدثنا علي بن عيسى (رحمه الله)، قال: حدثنا علي بن محمد ماجيلويه، عن أحمد بن أبي عبد الله البرقي، عن أبيه، عن محمد بن سنان المجاور، عن أحمد بن نصر الطحان، عن أبي بصير، قال: سمعت أبا عبد الله الصادق جعفر بن محمد (عليه السلام): أن عيسى روح الله مر بقوم مجلبين (٤) فقال: ما لهؤلاء؟ قيل: يا روح الله، إن فلانة بنت فلان تهدى إلى فلان بن فلان في ليلتها هذه. قال: يجلبون اليوم ويبكون غدا. فقال قائل منهم: ولم يا رسول الله؟ قال: لان صاحبتهم ميتة في ليلتها هذه. فقال القائلون بمقالته: صدق الله وصدق رسوله. وقال أهل النفاق، ما أقرب غدا! فلما أصبحوا جاءوا فوجدوها على حالها لم يحدث بها شئ، فقالوا: يا روح الله، إن التي أخبرتنا أمس أنها ميتة لم تمت! فقال عيسى (عليه السلام): يفعل الله ما يشاء، فاذهبوا بنا إليها. فذهبوا يتسابقون حتى قرعوا الباب فخرج زوجها، فقال له عيسى (عليه السلام): استأذن لي على صاحبتك. قال: فدخل عليها فأخبرها أن روح الله وكلمته بالباب مع عدة. قال: فتخدرت، فدخل عليها، فقال لها: ما صنعت ليلتك هذه؟ قالت: لم أصنع شيئا إلا وقد كنت أصنعه فيما مضى، إنه كان يعترينا سائل في كل ليلة جمعة فننيله ما يقوته إلى مثلها، وإنه جاءني في ليلتي هذه وأنا مشغولة بأمري وأهلي في مشاغيل، فهتف فلم يجبه أحد، ثم هتف فلم يجب حتى هتف مرارا، فلما سمعت مقالته قمت متنكرة حتى أنلته كما كنا ننيله، فقال لها: تنحي عن مجلسك، فإذا تحت ثيابها أفعى مثل جذعة عاض على ذنبه. فقال (عليه السلام): بما صنعت صرف الله عنك هذا (١).
`Ali b. `Isa (rh) narrated to us. He said: `Ali b. Muhammad Majiluwayh narrated to us from Ahmad b. Abi `Abdullah al-Barqi from his father from Muhammad b. Sinan al-Mujawir from Ahmad b. Nasr al-Talhan from Abi Basir. He said: I heard from Aba `Abdillah al-Sadiq Ja`far b. Muhammad : `Isa the Spirit of Allah passed by a people who were noising about. So, he said: What is wrong with these [people]? It was said: O Spirit of Allah! So-and-so the daughter of so-and-so is being married to so-and-so the son of so-and-so tonight. He said: They will noise about today, and they will weep tomorrow. So, one of them said: Why, O Messenger of Allah? He said: Because your [female] friend will die on this night. So, some said: Allah has spoken the truth, and His Messenger has spoken the truth. The people of hypocrisy said: How close is tomorrow! When they awoke, they went, and they found that nothing had happened to her. So, they said: O Spirit of Allah! Surely, you informed us yesterday that she will die, but she did not die! So, `Isa  said: Allah does what He wishes. Take us to her. So, they raced to her until they knocked on the door and her husband came out. Then, `Isa  said to him: Give me permission to see your wife.  He said: So, he (the husband) went to her and informed her that the Spirit of Allah and His Word was at the door with a group. He said: She is staying in her place. So, he entered her room [instead] and said to her: What did you do last night? She said: I did not do anything [special] except that which I have done in the past. A beggar would come to us every Friday eve, and we would give him what would suffice him till the next week. He came to me last night, but I was busy with my affairs, and my family was busy. Then, he called out, and no one greeted him. He called out again, and no one answered, so he kept repeating. When I heard his calls, I stood, I veiled myself, and I gave him what I would give him. So, he said to her: Move away from your sitting place. Then, they found a serpent like a tree trunk under her clothes, with its teeth clenching its tail. So, he  said: Because of what you did, Allah spared you from this.
