'Jabir ibn ‘Abdallah al-Ansari was last surviving of the companions of the Messenger of Allah. He was a devoted follower of us, Ahl al-Bayt. He would sit in the Mosque of the Messenger of Allah, wearing a black turban. He would call, 'O Baqir al-‘Ilm, O Baqir al-‘Ilm, (a person of deep knowledge)' The people of Medina would say, 'Jabir is hallucinating.' He would say, 'No, by Allah, I do not hallucinate, but I heard the Messenger of Allah say, 'You will soon meet a man from me whose name will be as my name and his manners would be as my manners. He will dig very deep in knowledge' This is what makes me say what I say.' The Imam (a.s.) has said, 'Jabir would still come and go and one day in one of the roads of Medina when passing he found a few of the school children among who Muhammad ibn Ali (a.s.) was also present (for a reason other than schooling. Imams are not heard of as attending schools). He looked at him and called him (Muhammad ibn Ali) to himself. The boy came to him and then he said, “Go back.” The boy went back. Then he said, 'I swear by the One in Whose hand is my life, (that I see) manners as the manners of the Messenger of Allah. O boy, What is your name?' He replied, 'My name is Muhammad ibn Ali ibn al-Husayn (a.s.).' Jabir came forwards and began to kiss his head and say, 'May Allah take my soul and the souls of my parents in service for your cause, your great-great grandfather told me to convey his greetings and Salam to you and would say all of that. The Imam (a.s.) has said, 'Muhammad ibn Ali ibn al-Husayn came to his father and he was anxious. He explained to him about Jabir. His father asked, “Did Jabir really do this?” He replied, “Yes, he did so.” The Imam (a.s.) said, 'My son, stay home (and do not expose yourself to the enemy because Jabir will maintain secrecy).' Jabir thereafter would come to him mornings and evenings and the people of Medina would say, 'It is so strange that Jabir, the only surviving companion of the Messenger of Allah would come to a boy on both ends of the day everyday.' Very shortly Ali ibn al-Husayn (a.s.) passed away Muhammad ibn Ali (a.s.) would go to visit Jabir out of respect for his being a companion of the Messenger of Allah and would speak to people from Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High. The people of Medina would say, 'We have not seen anyone as bold as he is!' On hearing this from them he began to speak to them from the Messenger of Allah. The people of Medina began to say, 'We have not seen a greater liar as he is because he speaks from one whom he has never seen.' On hearing this from them he began to narrate to them from Jabir. The Imam (a.s.) has said, 'They would accept what he would narrate from Jabir ibn ‘Abdallah. However, Jabir would come to him and would learn from him (Muhammad ibn Ali ibn al-Husayn (a.s.)).'"
