Hadith 50
۞
Besides, the Shia narrate that a conversation took place between him and Ali Ibne Husain (a.s) with respect to him being worthy of Imamate and they both invoked a rock to issue a verdict and the rock testified to the Imamate of Ali Ibne Husain (a.s). This humbled Muhammad Ibne Hanafiyyah and he submitted to the position to his nephew and professed belief in his Imamate.
