٨- فمن ذلك ما رواه محمد بن يعقوب الكليني، عن محمد بن الحسن، عن سهل بن زياد، عن محمد بن علي وعبيد الله بن المرزبان، عن ابن سنان قال:دخلت على أبي الحسن موسى عليه السلام-من قبل أن يقدم العراق بسنة-وعلي إبنه جالس بين يديه، فنظر إلي وقال: يا محمد (أما إنه) سيكون في هذه السنة حركة فلا تجزع لذلك. قال: قلت: وما يكون جعلني الله فداك فقد أقلقتني؟ قال: أصير إلى هذه الطاغية أما إنه لا يبدأني منه سوء ومن الذي يكون بعده. قال: قلت: وما يكون جعلني الله فداك؟ قال: يضل الله الظالمين ويفعل الله ما يشاء. قال قلت: وما ذلك جعلني الله فداك؟ قال: من ظلم ابني هذا حقه وجحده إمامته من بعدي كان كمن ظلم علي بن أبي طالب عليه السلام إمامته و جحده حقه بعد رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم. قال:قلت:والله لئن مد الله لي في العمر لاسلمن له حقه ولا قرن بإمامته. قال: صدقت يا محمد يمد الله في عمرك وتسلم له حقه عليه السلام وتقر له بإمامته وإمامة من يكون بعده. قال: قلت: ومن ذاك؟ قال: ابنه محمد. قال: قلت: له الرضا والتسليم.
H 8 - Among the reports narrated by Muhammad bin Yaqub Kulaini from Muhammad bin Hasan from Sahal bin Ziyad from Muhammad bin Ali and Ubaidullah bin Marzaban from Muhammad bin Sinan is that he said: I visited Abul Hasan Musa  the year before he went to Iraq. Ali, his son, was sitting in front of him. He looked at me and said: Muhammad, this year there will be some disturbance, but do not be worried by that. “May God make me your ransom, what will that be?” I asked him, for he had filled me with anxiety. “I will go to this despot,”  he answered, “but he will not receive any evil from me nor from the one who will be after me.” “May God make me your ransom, what will happen?” I said. “Whoever wrongs this son of mine and denies his Imamate after me is like those who wronged Ali Ibn Abi Talib  and denied his right after the Messenger of Allah (s),” he replied. “If God supports me in my life, may I submit to his right and declare my belief in his Imamate?” I asked. “True, Muhammad,” he said, “God will support you during your life and you will submit to his right and declare your belief in his Imamate, and the Imamate of the one who will be (Imam) after him.” “Who will that be?” I asked. “His son, Muhammad,” he answered. I said: “I give consent and submit to him.”
