Ibrahim b. Abda

1. [1/-] Rijal al-Kashshi: One of the Thiqat in Naysabur relayed to us that: there came out a signed rescript from Abi Muhammad عليه السلام to Ishaq b. Ismail saying: O Ishaq b. Ismail … and upon Ibrahim b. Abda be peace from Allah and His mercy … and whoever reads this letter of ours from among our followers who are the denizens of your town … they should hand over our dues to Ibrahim b. Abda, and Ibrahim b. Abda should carry that to al-Razi may Allah be pleased with him, or to the one al-Razi names for him, for that is by my command and my choice – if Allah wills …

2. [2/119] Rijal al-Kashshi: Abu Amr (al-Kashshi) said: one of the Thiqat relayed to me that Aba Muhammad صلوات الله عليه wrote to Ibrahim b. Abda [to show it to his doubters]: ‘and my letter which was issued to Ibrahim b. Abda [previously] appointing him as my agent to collect my dues from my followers over there – then yes – it is indeed by my own handwriting, I have appointed him – that is Ibrahim b. Abda – for them in their town – this a truth and it is not a falsehood, so they should fear Allah the way He ought to be feared and they should take out my dues and hand it over to him, for I have permitted him what he uses from it, may Allah enable him and favor him with protection from short-coming by His mercy.
