 1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from al-Hassan ibn Ibrahim from Yunus from Hisham ibn al-Hakam about the narration of Burayh with whom he came to abu ‘Abdallah  but they met abu al-Hassan Musa ibn Ja‘far . Hisham explained to the Imams  about Burayh. When he finished abu al-Hassan  asked, “O Burayh, how is your knowledge of your book?” He replied, “I know it.” The Imam  then asked, “What is the degree of your confidence in its interpretation?” He said, “Not so much”??? The narrator has said, “Abu al-Hassan then begun to read (from) the Gospel. Burayh then said, “It is you whom I was searching for fifty years or someone like you.” He has said that Burayh accepted the faith and also the lady who was with him.” Burayh and Hisham and the lady then came to abu ‘Abdallah . Hisham informed the Imam  about what had happened between Burayh and abu al-Hassan . Abu ‘Abdallah  then said, “The generations that are from each other and Allah hears and knows best.” Burayh then asked, “How have possessed the Torah and the Gospel and the books if the prophets?” The Imam  said, “ We receive them as in the form of inheritance from them. We read them as they would read them and speak about them as the prophets would do. Allah does grant Divine authority on His earth to those who if questioned would be able to give the right answer and say I do not know.”
