٣٦٦- وأخبرني جماعة عن أبي عبد الله الحسين بن علي بن بابويه القمي قال:حدثني جماعة من أهل قم منهم علي بن بابويه قال:حدثني جماعة من أهل قم منهم علي بن أحمد بن عمران الصفار وقريبه علوية الصفار والحسين بن أحمد بن إدريس رحمهم الله قالوا: حضرنا بغداد في السنة التي توفي فيها أبي علي بن الحسين بن موسى بن بابويه وكان أبو الحسن علي بن محمد السمري قدس سره يسألنا كل قريب عن خبر علي بن الحسين رحمه الله،فنقول: قد ورد الكتاب باستقلاله. حتى كان اليوم الذي قبض فيه فسألنا عنه فذكرنا له مثل ذلك،فقال لنا: آجركم الله في علي بن الحسين،فقد قبض في هذه الساعة. قالوا: فأثبتنا تاريخ الساعة واليوم والشهر،فلما كان بعد سبعة عشر يوما أو ثمانية عشر يوما ورد الخبر أنه قبض في تلك الساعة التي ذكرها الشيخ أبو الحسن قدس سره.
H 366 - It is narrated from a group of our scholars from Abu Abdullah Husain Ibn Ali Ibn Babawayh from a group of scholars of Qom, amongst them, Ali Ibn Babawayh, narrated: A group of scholars of Qom, amongst them Ali Ibn Ahmad Ibn Imran Saffar and his relative, the lady of Saffar and Husain Ibn Ahmad Ibn Idris, said: We were present in Baghdad during the year in which Ali Ibn Husain Ibn Musa Ibn Babawayh passed away. Abul Hasan Ali Ibn Muhammad Saymoori, may Allah sanctify his soul, would often ask us of the news of Ali Ibn Husain . We would answer him that letters are coming that he is well. This continued until came the day on which Ibn Husain died. He asked us about Ibn Husain and we gave him a similar answer. He said: “May Allah reward you in the event of the demise of Ali Ibn Husain. He just died at this hour.” We recorded the hour, day and the month. After seventeen or eighteen days, news came that he had died in the very hour, which Shaykh Abul Hasan had mentioned him.
