12. Ahmad ibn Mihran has narrated from Muhammad ibn Ali from Sa‘id ibn abu al-Jahm from al-Nasr ibn Qabus who has said the following.
“I said to abu Ibrahim (a.s.), ‘I asked your father, “Who will be (the Imam) after you? He informed me that you will be (the Imam after him). When abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.) left this world people went let and right and I said that I with my people are with you. Inform me who will be (the Imam) after you from your sons.” He (the Imam (a.s.) said, “My son so and so.”
12ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَهْمِ عَنِ النَّصْرِ بْنِ قَابُوسَ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لابِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) إِنِّي سَأَلْتُ أَبَاكَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) مَنِ الَّذِي يَكُونُ مِنْ بَعْدِكَ فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ هُوَ فَلَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) ذَهَبَ النَّاسُ يَمِيناً وَشِمَالاً وَقُلْتُ فِيكَ أَنَا وَأَصْحَابِي فَأَخْبِرْنِي مَنِ الَّذِي يَكُونُ مِنْ بَعْدِكَ مِنْ وُلْدِكَ فَقَالَ ابْنِي فُلانٌ.
