13. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from Mu’alla ibn Muhammad from al-Washsha’ from Aban from Isma’il al-Ja’fi who has said the following
“Once a man came to abu Ja’far (a.s.). He had a book with him. Abu Ja’far said, ‘This is the book of a polemicist who wants to learn a religion that if followed ones deeds are accepted.’ The man said, ‘May the blessings of Allah be with you, this is exactly what I want.’ Abu Ja’far (a.s.) said, ‘Such religion is to testify that no one deserves to be worshipped except Allah, Who has no partners. That Muhammad (a.s.) is His servant and Messenger. And that you affirm and acknowledge that whatever he has brought is from Allah. That one has love (in his heart) for us, Ahl al-Bayt, and disassociates himself from our enemies, obeys our commands, maintains piety and humbleness in life and has hope in the rise from us of one with the Divine Authority. For us there is a government and he will establish it when Allah wills.’”
13ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ مُعَلَّى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْوَشَّاءِ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ الْجُعْفِيِّ قَالَ
دَخَلَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) وَمَعَهُ صَحِيفَةٌ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) هَذِهِ صَحِيفَةُ مُخَاصِمٍ يَسْأَلُ عَنِ الدِّينِ الَّذِي يُقْبَلُ فِيهِ الْعَمَلُ فَقَالَ رَحِمَكَ الله هَذَا الَّذِي أُرِيدُ فَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) شَهَادَةُ أَنْ لا إِلَهَ إِلا الله وَحْدَهُ لا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّداً (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَتُقِرَّ بِمَا جَاءَ مِنْ عِنْدِ الله وَالْوَلايَةُ لَنَا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَالْبَرَاءَةُ مِنْ عَدُوِّنَا وَالتَّسْلِيمُ لأمْرِنَا وَالْوَرَعُ وَالتَّوَاضُعُ وَانْتِظَارُ قَائِمِنَا فَإِنَّ لَنَا دَوْلَةً إِذَا شَاءَ الله جَاءَ بِهَا.
