٣- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ بَحْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَوْلُ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فِي كِتَابِهِ وَلا تَأْكُلُوا أَمْوالَكُمْ بَيْنَكُمْ بِالْباطِلِ وَتُدْلُوا بِها إِلَى الْحُكَّامِ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا بَصِيرٍ إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَدْ عَلِمَ أَنَّ فِي الأمَّةِ حُكَّاماً يَجُورُونَ أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَعْنِ حُكَّامَ أَهْلِ الْعَدْلِ وَلَكِنَّهُ عَنَى حُكَّامَ أَهْلِ الْجَوْرِ يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ إِنَّهُ لَوْ كَانَ لَكَ عَلَى رَجُلٍ حَقٌّ فَدَعَوْتَهُ إِلَى حُكَّامِ أَهْلِ الْعَدْلِ فَأَبَى عَلَيْكَ إِلا أَنْ يُرَافِعَكَ إِلَى حُكَّامِ أَهْلِ الْجَوْرِ لِيَقْضُوا لَهُ لَكَانَ مِمَّنْ حَاكَمَ إِلَى الطَّاغُوتِ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِينَ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّهُمْ آمَنُوا بِما أُنْزِلَ إِلَيْكَ وَما أُنْزِلَ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ يُرِيدُونَ أَنْ يَتَحاكَمُوا إِلَى الطَّاغُوتِ.
3. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from ‘Abd Allah ibn Bahr from ‘Abd Allah ibn Muskan from abu Basir who has narrated the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah , about the meaning of the words of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, ‘. . . do not consume your wealth among yourselves in falsehood and throw them to the rulers.’ (2:188) He (the Imam) said, ‘O abu Basir, Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, knows that among the nations there are unjust rulers who commit injustice. He has not thereby meant the rulers of justice but He has meant the unjust rulers. O abu Muhammad, if you have a certain right on a man and you call him before the judges of justice but he refuses and wants to take you before the unjust rulers and judges for judgment for him, he is one of those who has gone for justice before the transgressors. This is mentioned in the words of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious. “. . . have you considered those who think they have believed in what Allah has sent before you, they like to seek judgment before the transgressors when they are commanded to reject the transgressors, the devil.” (4:60)’”
