2. It is narrated from the narrator of the previous Hadith from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Yunus from Musa ibn Bakr from Ali ibn Sa‘id who has narrated the following
“I once said to Zurarah that Bukayr ibn ’A’yan has narrated to me from abu Ja‘far (a.s.), that the shares do not face deficiency and they are not more than six. He said, ‘This is of things in which there are no differences among our people from abu ‘Abd Allah, and abu Ja‘far, ‘Alayhim al- Salam.”’
2- وَعَنْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ بَكْرٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لِزُرَارَةَ إِنَّ بُكَيْرَ بْنَ أَعْيَنَ حَدَّثَنِي عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) أَنَّ السِّهَامَ لا تَعُولُ وَلا تَكُونُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ سِتَّةٍ فَقَالَ هَذَا مَا لَيْسَ فِيهِ اخْتِلافٌ بَيْنَ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ وَأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام).
