 ٤ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ حَمْدَانَ الْقَلانِسِيِّ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِلْعَمْرِيِّ قَدْ مَضَى أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فَقَالَ قَدْ مَضَى وَلَكِنْ قَدْ خَلَّفَ فِيكُمْ مَنْ رَقَبَتُهُ مِثْلُ هَذَا وَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ.
 4. Ali ibn Muhammad has narrated from Hamdan al-Qalanisi who has said the following. “I asked al-‘Amri, “Has abu Muhammad  passed away?” He said, “Yes, he has passed away but has left behind among you a person (the succeeding Imam) whose neck is like this. He made a sign with his hand (meaning thereby good health and beauty).”
