أبي - رحمه الله - قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى، قال: حدثنا محمد بن يونس، قال: حدثنا حماد بن عيسى، قال: حدثنا جعفر بن محمد، عن أبيه عليهما السلام، قال: قال جابر بن عبد الله: سمعت رسول الله صلى عليه وآله يقول لعلي بن أبي طالب عليه السلام قبل موته بثلاث: سلام الله عليك يا أبا الريحانتين، أوصيك بريحانتي من الدنيا فعن قليل ينهد ركناك والله خليفتي عليك. فلما قبض رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله قال علي: هذا أحد ركني الذي قال لي رسول الله، فلما ماتت فاطمة سلام الله عليها قال علي عليه السلام: هذا الركن الثاني الذي قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله.
69.	My father, may Allah grant him mercy, said: We were told by Sa’d bin Abdullah, from Ahmad bin Muhammed bin Isa, that he said: We were told by Yunus bin Abdul-Rahman, that he said: We were told by Hammad bin Isa, that he said: We were told by Ja’far bin Muhammed, from his father, peace be upon them both, that he said: Jabir bin Abdullah said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family, say to Ali bin Abi Talib  before his death with three (days), 'The peace of Allah be upon you, O father of the Two Aromas. I bequeath you with regards to my Aroma of this world, for soon will your pillars collapse, and Allah is the my Trustee upon you.' Then, when the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ was taken, Ali said: This is one of my pillars about whom the Messenger of Allah spoke to me. Then, when Fatima  died, Ali  said: 'This is the second pillar about whom the Messenger of Allah, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family, spoke.'"
