5. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from abu Ayyub al-Khazzaz from Muhammad ibn Muslim who has narrated the following
“I once looked in a book in which abu Ja‘far (a.s.), was looking and I read therein that a son of a brother and grandfather share the legacy in equal ratios. I then said to abu Ja‘far (a.s.), ‘People around us do not judge with such judgment and they do not give to a son of a brother anything with a grandfather.’ Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), said, ‘This is the dictation of the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, in the handwriting of Ali (a.s.), from the mouth of the Messenger of Allah with his (Ali’s) hand.’”
5- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ الْخَزَّازِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ
نَظَرْتُ إِلَى صَحِيفَةٍ يَنْظُرُ فِيهَا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فَقَرَأْتُ فِيهَا مَكْتُوباً ابْنُ أَخٍ وَجَدٌّ الْمَالُ بَيْنَهُمَا سَوَاءٌ فَقُلْتُ لأبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) إِنَّ مَنْ عِنْدَنَا لا يَقْضُونَ بِهَذَا الْقَضَاءِ وَلا يَجْعَلُونَ لابْنِ الأخِ مَعَ الْجَدِّ شَيْئاً فَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) أَمَا إِنَّهُ إِمْلاءُ رَسُولِ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) وَخَطُّ عَلِيٍّ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) مِنْ فِيهِ بِيَدِهِ.
