Hadith 468
۞
H 253 - A group of scholars informed me from Abu Muhammad Hasan bin Hamza bin Ali bin Abdullah bin Muhammad bin Hasan bin Husain bin Ali bin Husain bin Ali bin Abu Talib that: Narrated to us Ali bin Muhammad Kulaini that he said
Muhammad bin Ziyad Saymoori wrote in a letter to the Master of the Age (a.s) for a shroud as a blessing. Reply came: You will need it in year eighty-one. Muhammad bin Ziyad passed away in the year the Imam had mentioned and the shroud was delivered to him a month before that.
253- وأخبرنا جماعة، عن أبي محمد الحسن بن حمزة بن علي بن عبدالله بن محمد بن الحسن بن الحسين بن علي بن الحسين بن علي بن أبي طالب عليهم السلام قال:حدثنا، علي بن محمد الكليني، قال
كتب محمد بن زياد الصيمري يسأل صاحب الزمان عجل الله فرجه كفنا يتيمن بما يكون من عنده، فورد: إنك تحتاج إليه سنة إحدى وثمانين. فمات رحمه الله في (هذ) الوقت الذي حده وبعث إليه بالكفن قبل موته بشهر.
