12-48 Muhammad ibn Musa ibn al-Mutevakil - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Muhammad ibn Yahya al-Attar quoted Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa, on the authority of Al-Hassan ibn Abbas ibn al-Huraysh al-Razi, on the authority of Abi Ja’far Muhammad ibn Ali - the second (MGB)
“The Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali (MGB) told Ibn Abbas , ‘Indeed there is the Night of Power every year. On this night the orders for the whole year descend. Those in charge of the affairs shall receive these orders.’ Ibn Abbas asked, ‘Who are they.’ Ali (MGB) replied, ‘Me and eleven Divine Leaders from my progeny who shall receive the traditions.’”
12-48 حدثنا محمد بن موسى بن المتوكل رضي الله عنه قال: حدثنا محمد بن يحيى العطار، عن أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى قال: حدثنا الحسن بن العباس بن الحريش الرازي، عن أبي جعفر محمد بن علي الثاني عليهما السلام أن أميرالمؤمنين عليه السلام قال
لابن عباس: إن ليلة القدر في كل سنة وأنه ينزل في تلك الليلة أمر السنة، ولذلك الامر ولاة بعد رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله فقال ابن عباس: من هم؟ قال: أنا وأحد عشر من صلبي أئمة محدثون
