٤ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ غَيْرِ وَاحِدٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالُوا قَالَ لَهُ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِنَا قَالَ وَلا أَعْلَمُهُ إِلاَّ سَعِيداً السَّمَّانَ كَيْفَ يَكُونُ لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ خَيْراً مِنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ قَالَ الْعَمَلُ فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ فِي أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ لَيْسَ فِيهَا لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ.
4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from more than one person who have said the following: “Certain individuals of our people - the only one of these people I know is Sa‘id al-Samman- asked abu ‘ Abd Allah , ‘Why is it that the night of destiny is better than one thousand months? 5 He (the Imam) replied, ‘It is because doing good deeds during this night is better than doing good deeds in one thousand months that do not have the night of destiny.’”
