(27) Muhammad bin Ya’qoob narrated from Ali bin Ibraheem bin Hashim from his father from ibn Abu Omayr from Abban bin Ayyash that Sulaym bin Qayss al-Hilali had said
I have heard Abdullah bin Ja’far at-Tayyar saying: One day Al-Hasan, al-Husayn, Abdullah bin Abbas, Umar bin Umm Salama, Ussama bin Zayd and I were with Mo’awiya. I said to him: “I have heard the Prophet (S) saying: “I am worthier of the believers than themselves then my brother Ali bin Abu Talib will be worthier of the believers than themselves. If he is martyred then his son al-Hasan will be worthier of the believers than themselves then after him al-Husayn will be worthier of the believers than themselves. If he is martyred, his son Ali bin al-Husayn will be worthier of the believers than themselves then his son Muhammad bin Ali will be worthier of the believers than themselves then the rest of the twelve imams, nine of whom are from the progeny of al-Husayn.” I asked al-Hasan, al-Husayn, Abdullah bin Abbas, Umar bin Umm Salama and Ussama bin Zayd to witness of that (the Prophet (S) had said so) and they witnessed.” Sulaym said: “I have heard that from Salman al-Farisi, al-Miqdad and Abu Tharr that they have heard it from the Prophet (S).”
27 - أخبرنا محمد بن يعقوب، قال: حدثنا علي بن إبراهيم بن هاشم، عن أبيه، عن ابن أبي عمير، عن ابن أذينة، عن أبان بن أبي عياش، عن سليم بن قيس الهلالي قال
سمعت عبد الله بن جعفر الطيار يقول: كنا عند معاوية أنا والحسن والحسين وعبد الله بن عباس وعمر بن أم سلمة واسامة بن زيد، فجَرى بيني وبين معاوية كلام، فقلت لمعاوية: سمعت رسول الله يقول: أنا أولى بالمؤمنينَ مِن أنفسهم، ثم أخي عليّ بن أبي طالب أولى بالمؤمنين من أنفسهم، فإذا استشهد عليٌّ فالحسن بن علي أولى بالمؤمنين من أنفسهم، ثم ابني الحسين مِن بعده أولى بالمؤمنين من أنفسهم، فإذا استشهد فابنه عليّ بن الحسين أولى بالمؤمنين من أنفسهم وستدركه يا علي ثم ابنه محمّد بن علي أولى بالمؤمنين من أنفسهم، وستدركه يا حسين، ثم تكمله اثني عشر إماماً تسعة من ولد الحسين. قال عبد الله بن جعفر: فاستشهدت الحسنَ والحسين وعبدَ الله بن عباس وعمر بن ام سلمة وأسامة بن زيد فشهدوا. قال سليم: وقد سمعت ذلك من سلمان الفارسي والمقداد وأبي ذر وذكروا أنهم سمعوا ذلك من رسول الله .
