H 112 - Informed me a group of scholar from Muhammad bin Yaqub from Ali Ashari from Husain bin Abdullah from Hasan from Musa Khashshab from Hasan bin Sama-a from Ali bin Hasan bin Rabat from Ibn Uzniyya from Zurarah that he said
I heard Imam Muhammad Baqir (a.s) say: Twelve Imams from Aale Muhammad (a.s) were all Muhaddath and they were from the descendants of the Messenger of Allah (s) and Ali Ibn Abi Talib (a.s). Thus the Messenger of Allah (s) and Imam Ali (a.s) are their fathers.
112- وأخبرني جماعة عن عدة من أصحابنا عن محمد بن يعقوب عن أبي علي الأشعري عن الحسين بن عبد الله عن الحسن بن موسى الخشاب عن الحسن بن سماعة عن علي بن الحسن بن رباط عن ابن أذينة عن زرارة قال
سمعت أبا جعفر عليه السلام يقول: الاثنا عشر الإمام من آل محمد كلهم محدث من ولد رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم وولد علي بن أبي طالب عليه السلام،فرسول الله وعلي هما الوالدان.
