Hadith 127
۞
H 67 - Muhammad bin Hasan Walid has narrated from Saffar and Saad bin Abdullah Ashari, all together from Yaqub bin Yazid Ambari from some scholars, who said
When Abu Ibrahim (a.s) passed away, Ziyad Qandi was having seventy thousand dinars with him and Uthman bin Isa Rawasi had thirty thousand dinars and five slave girls and he lived in Egypt. Imam Ali Ridha (a.s) sent a message to them: That which is deposited with you from the wealth of my father and that which you hold from cash and slave girls and other things, send it all to me as I am his successor and I will distribute the inheritance of the Imam. [It is a hint that I know what amount you are having]. You don’t any more have any excuse for keeping that which is deposited with you and from his inheritance; and he issued such commands. But Ibn Abi Hamza originally denied and did not admit having that, which was in his possession. Same was the case of Ziyad Qandi. But Uthman bin Isa wrote to Imam Ridha (a.s): Your father (a.s) is alive and established; and one who believes in his death is having false beliefs. If you say since he is dead, I should act on it [and accept his death], he did not instruct me to hand over anything to you [this was with regard to cash] and as for the slave girls, I have emancipated them and taken them as wives.
67- وروى محمد بن الحسن بن الوليد عن الصفار وسعد بن عبد الله الأشعري جميعا عن يعقوب بن يزيد الأنباري عن بعض أصحابه قال
مضى أبو إبراهيم عليه السلام وعند زياد القندي سبعون ألف دينار وعند عثمان بن عيسى الرواسي ثلاثون ألف دينار وخمس جوار ومسكنه بمصر، فبعث إليهم أبو الحسن الرضا عليه السلام أن احملوا ما قبلكم من المال وما كان اجتمع لأبي عندكم من أثاث وجوار فإني وارثه وقائم مقامه وقد اقتسمنا ميراثه ولا عذر لكم في حبس ما قد اجتمع لي ولوارثه قبلكم،وكلام يشبه هذا. فأما ابن أبي حمزة فإنه أنكره ولم يعترف بما عنده،وكذلك زياد القندي. وأما عثمان بن عيسى فإنه كتب إليه أن أباك عليه السلام لم يمت، وهو حي قائم، ومن ذكر أنه مات فهو مبطل،وأعمل على أنه قد مضى كما تقول فلم يأمرني بدفع شيء إليك، وأما الجواري فقد أعتقهن وتزوجت بهن.
