١ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ جَدِّهِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ رَاشِدٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ عِيدٌ غَيْرَ الْعِيدَيْنِ قَالَ نَعَمْ يَا حَسَنُ أَعْظَمُهُمَا وَأَشْرَفُهُمَا قُلْتُ وَأَيُّ يَوْمٍ هُوَ قَالَ هُوَ يَوْمٌ نُصِبَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ صَلَوَاتُ الله وَسَلامُهُ عَلَيْهِ فِيهِ عَلَماً لِلنَّاسِ قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ وَمَا يَنْبَغِي لَنَا أَنْ نَصْنَعَ فِيهِ قَالَ تَصُومُهُ يَا حَسَنُ وَتُكْثِرُ الصَّلاةَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ وَتَبَرَّأُ إِلَى الله مِمَّنْ ظَلَمَهُمْ فَإِنَّ الأَنْبِيَاءَ صَلَوَاتُ الله عَلَيْهِمْ كَانَتْ تَأْمُرُ الأَوْصِيَاءَ بِالْيَوْمِ الَّذِي كَانَ يُقَامُ فِيهِ الْوَصِيُّ أَنْ يُتَّخَذَ عِيداً قَالَ قُلْتُ فَمَا لِمَنْ صَامَهُ قَالَ صِيَامُ سِتِّينَ شَهْراً وَلا تَدَعْ صِيَامَ يَوْمِ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِنْ رَجَبٍ فَإِنَّهُ هُوَ الْيَوْمُ الَّذِي نَزَلَتْ فِيهِ النُّبُوَّةُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ (صلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) وَثَوَابُهُ مِثْلُ سِتِّينَ شَهْراً لَكُمْ.
1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from af-Qasim ibn Yahya from his grandfather, al-Hassan ibn Rashid who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘ Abd Allah , saying, ’I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, are there other ‘Id for the Muslims besides the two ‘Ids? 5 The Imam replied, ‘Yes, O Hassan, there is a greater and more important ‘Id than these.’ I then asked, ‘When is such ‘Id?’ He replied, ‘It is the day when ’Amir al-Mu’minin , was appointed as the banner and lighthouse for people.’ I then said, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, what then we should do on this day?’ He replied, ‘Fast, O Hassan, increase your appeal before Allah saying, “Grant salawat (favors and compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause).” Denounce before Allah those who did injustice to the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, and his family. The prophets, may Allah grant them favors, would command the executors of the will to celebrate the day when they were appointed as executors of the will, as ‘Id.’ I then asked, ‘What happens if one fasts on such day?’ He replied, ‘Fasting on this day is equal to fasting for sixty months. Do not ignore fasting on the twenty-seventh of the month of Rajab. It is the day when prophet-hood came down up on Muhammad . Fasting on this day is equal to sixty months (of fasting).”’
