172. Ali, from his father and Muhammad Bin Ismail, from Al-Fazl Bin Shazaan altogether from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr, from Abd Al-Rahmaan Bin Al-Hajjaaj, and Hafs Bin Al-Bakhtary, and Salmat Bayya Al-Sabiry, who has narrated the following
Abu Abdullah (asws) said: ‘Whenever Ali (asws) Bin Al-Husayn (asws) used to take the Book of Ali (asws), he would look into it and say: ‘Who can endure this, who can endure this?’ Then he said: ‘Who would act upon it, and when he would stand for the Prayer, his colour would change to the extent that it would become apparent in his face, and no one can endure the actions of Ali (asws) from his sons from after him except for Ali (asws) Bin Al-Husayn (asws)’.
عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ جَمِيعاً عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَجَّاجِ وَ حَفْصِ بْنِ الْبَخْتَرِيِّ وَ سَلَمَةَ بَيَّاعِ السَّابِرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ
كَانَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ (عليه السلام) إِذَا أَخَذَ كِتَابَ عَلِيٍّ (عليه السلام) فَنَظَرَ فِيهِ قَالَ مَنْ يُطِيقُ هَذَا مَنْ يُطِيقُ ذَا قَالَ ثُمَّ يَعْمَلُ بِهِ وَ كَانَ إِذَا قَامَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ تَغَيَّرَ لَوْنُهُ حَتَّى يُعْرَفَ ذَلِكَ فِي وَجْهِهِ وَ مَا أَطَاقَ أَحَدٌ عَمَلَ عَلِيٍّ (عليه السلام) مِنْ وُلْدِهِ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ إِلَّا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ (عليه السلام).
