Hadith 1463
۞
5. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ali ibn Hassan from Musa ibn Bakr from a man who has said the following
“Abu Ja’far (a.s.) has said, ‘People of inclined hearts had never been as many as they are today. They were a people who accepted Allah only, had come out of paganism but the true knowledge about Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah had not entered their hearts as well as certain issues of what he had brought from Allah. The Messenger of Allah would meet them with kindness and after the Messenger of Allah the believers would meet them with kindness so they might receive true knowledge.’”
5ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ حَسَّانَ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ بَكْرٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ قَالَ
قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) مَا كَانَتِ الْمُؤَلَّفَةُ قُلُوبُهُمْ قَطُّ أَكْثَرَ مِنْهُمُ الْيَوْمَ وَهُمْ قَوْمٌ وَحَّدُوا الله وَخَرَجُوا مِنَ الشِّرْكِ وَلَمْ تَدْخُلْ مَعْرِفَةُ مُحَمَّدٍ رَسُولِ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) قُلُوبَهُمْ وَمَا جَاءَ بِهِ فَتَأَلَّفَهُمْ رَسُولُ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) وَتَأَلَّفَهُمُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) لِكَيْمَا يَعْرِفُوا.
