 حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِی نَجْرَانَ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِی حَمْزَهَ قَالَ: قَالَ لَنَا عَلِیُّ بْنُ الْحُسَیْنِ ع أَیُّ الْبِقَاعِ أَفْضَلُ قُلْتُ اللَّهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ وَ ابْنُ رَسُولِهِ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ إِنَّ أَفْضَلَ الْبِقَاعِ مَا بَیْنَ الرُّکْنِ وَ الْمَقَامِ وَ لَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا عُمِّرَ مَا عُمِّرَ نُوحٌ ع فِی قَوْمِهِ- أَلْفَ سَنَهٍ إِلَّا خَمْسِینَ عاماً یَصُومُ نَهَاراً وَ یَقُومُ لَیْلًا فِی ذَلِکَ الْمَقَامِ ثُمَّ لَقِیَ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِغَیْرِ وَلَایَتِنَا لَمْ یَنْتَفِعْ بِذَلِکَ شَیْئاً.
2. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan al-Saffar from Ahmad b. Muhammad from Abdulrahman b. Abi Najran from ’Asim from Abi Hamzah who said: “The best place is the area between rukn and maqaam. One who gets a life as long as that of prophet Nuh i.e. of 95 years, and if he fasts during the day and offers prayers at this best place at night for his whole life and if he goes to Allah without our love, he will not get benefit of any of his deeds.”
