Hadith 76
۞
H 17 - It is narrated from Ahmad bin Mehran from Muhammad bin Ali from Saeed bin Abil Jaham from Nasr bin Qabus that he said
I said to Abu Ibrahim [Imam Musa Kadhim (a.s)]: I asked your father who would be the Imam after him and he told me that you would be. Therefore, when Abu Abdullah [Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s)] passed away, the people went to right and left, while I and my companions declared (our support) for you. Therefore, tell me which of your children will be (the Imam) after You? My son, so-and-so [Imam Ali Ridha (a.s)], he said.
17- وبهذا الاسناد، عن ابن مهران، عن محمد بن علي، عن سعيد بن أبي الجهم عن نصر بن قابوس قال
قلت لابي إبراهيم عليه السلام:إني سألت أباك عليه السلام من الذي يكون بعدك؟ فأخبرني أنك أنت هو، فلما توفي أبو عبدالله عليه السلام ذهب الناس يمينا وشمالا وقلت بك أنا وأصحابي. فأخبرني من الذي يكون من بعدك من ولدك؟ قال: إبني فلان.
