 ١٣ـ وَبِهَذَا الاسْنَادِ أَنَّ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ لابِي بَكْرٍ يَوْماً لا تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا فِي سَبِيلِ الله أَمْواتاً بَلْ أَحْياءٌ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ يُرْزَقُونَ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) رَسُولُ الله مَاتَ شَهِيداً وَالله لَيَأْتِيَنَّكَ فَأَيْقِنْ إِذَا جَاءَكَ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ غَيْرُ مُتَخَيِّلٍ بِهِ فَأَخَذَ عَلِيٌّ بِيَدِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَأَرَاهُ النَّبِيَّ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) فَقَالَ لَهُ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ آمِنْ بِعَلِيٍّ وَبِأَحَدَ عَشَرَ مِنْ وُلْدِهِ إِنَّهُمْ مِثْلِي إِلا النُّبُوَّةَ وَتُبْ إِلَى الله مِمَّا فِي يَدِكَ فَإِنَّهُ لا حَقَّ لَكَ فِيهِ قَالَ ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ فَلَمْ يُرَ.
 13. Through the same chain of narrators the following is narrated. “Amir al-Mu’minin Ali  one day said to abu Bakr, “Do not think of those slain for the cause of God as dead. They are alive with their Lord and receive sustenance from Him.” (3:169).I testify that Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah died as a martyr. He by Allah, comes to you and do have any doubts when he will come to you. Satan can not appear in his disguise.” Ali  took the hand of abu Bakr and showed the Holy Prophet (s.a) to him who said to him, “O abu Bakr, believe in Ali and in the eleven Imams from his descendants. They are all like me except prophet-hood. Repent before Allah because of what you involvement in what you are involved. You have no right in it.” The narrator has said that then he went and was not seen around.”
