٣٦٣- وأخبرني محمد بن محمد بن النعمان والحسين بن عبيد الله عن أبي عبد الله محمد بن أحمد الصفواني قال: أوصى الشيخ أبو القاسم رضي الله عنه إلى أبي الحسن علي بن محمد السمري رضي الله عنه فقام بما كان إلى أبي القاسم. فلما حضرته الوفاة حضرت الشيعة عنده وسألته عن الموكل بعده ولمن يقوم مقامه،فلم يظهر شيئا من ذلك وذكر أنه لم يؤمر بأن يوصي إلى أحد بعده في هذا الشأن.
H 363 - Muhammad Ibn Muhammad Ibn Noman Husain Ibn Ubaidullah narrated to me from Abu Abdullah Ahmad Ibn Muhammad Safwani, saying, Shaykh Abul Qasim confided his final testimony to Abul Hasan Ali Ibn Muhammad Saymoori and appointed him at his duty. So he undertook Abul Qasim’s task. When his time came, the Shia gathered before him and asked him about the representative after him and that who was going to carry his duties after his demise. He did not express anything in that regard and mentioned that he has not been ordered to appoint anyone after him for this position.
