۞
8. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn abu Hamza from ibn abu Sa‘id from Aban ibn Taghlib from abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.) who has said the following.
“When the Messenger of Allah was about to leave this world Ali (a.s.) came in to see him he (the Messenger of Allah) placed his (Ali’s) head under the blanket and said, “O Ali, when I will die, wash my body and shroud it then place me in a sitting posture then ask me and write down.”
8ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ تَغْلِبَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
لَمَّا حَضَرَ رَسُولَ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) الْمَوْتُ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ علي (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فَأَدْخَلَ رَأْسَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ إِذَا أَنَا مِتُّ فَغَسِّلْنِي وَكَفِّنِّي ثُمَّ أَقْعِدْنِي وَسَلْنِي وَاكْتُبْ.
