12-46 Muhammad ibn Ali Majiluyih narrated that Muhammad ibn Yahya al-Attar quoted Muhammad ibn al-Hassan al-Saf’far, on the authority of Abi Talib Abdullah ibn al-Salt al-Qumi, on the authority of Uthman ibn Isa, on the authority of Sama’at ibn Mihran, “Abu Basir and I were in the house of Muhammad ibn Imran - the servant of Abi Ja’far al-Baqir. Muhammad ibn Imran said that he had heard Aba Abdullah as-Sadiq (MGB)say, ‘There are twelve of us.’ Abu Basir asked him, ‘By God! Did you hear that from Aba Abdullah as-Sadiq (MGB)?’ He had him swear to God two or three times and he did it. Abu Basir said, ‘
However, I have heard this from Abi Ja’far al-Baqir (MGB).’”
12-46 حدثنا محمد بن علي ما جيلويه قال: حدثنا محمد بن يحيى العطار، عن محمد بن الحسن الصفار، عن أبي طالب عبد الله بن الصلت القمي، عن عثمان بن عيسى عن سماعة بن مهران قال
كنت أنا وأبو بصير ومحمد بن عمران مولى أبـيجعفر عليه السلام في منزله فقال محمد بن عمران: سمعت أبا عبد الله عليه السلام يقول: نحن اثنا عشر محدثا فقال له أبوبصير: تالله لقد سمعت ذلك من أبي عبد الله عليه السلام فحلفه مرة أو مرتين فحلف أنه قد سمعه، فقال أبوبصير: لكني سمعته من أبي جعفر عليه السلام
