3. With this chain of narrators, from Muhammed bin Ahmad, from Muhammed bin Abdul-Jabbar, from Abu’l-Qasem al-Kufi, that he came
with a mudd and mentioned that Ibn Abi ‘Umayr gave him that mudd and said: It was given to me by such-a-person, a man from the companions of Abu Abdillah, peace be upon him, and he said: It was given to me by Abu Abdillah, peace be upon him, and he said: This is the (measurement of the) mudd of the Prophet, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family. So we measured it and found it to be (equal to) to four mudds, and that one and a quarter qafeez [1], as is measured by this qafeez of ours.
وبهذا الاسناد، عن محمد بن أحمد، عن محمد بن عبد الجبار، عن أبي القاسم الكوفي أنه جاء بمد وذكر أن ابن أبي عمير أعطاه ذلك المد وقال
أعطانيه فلان رجل من أصحاب أبي عبد الله عليه السلام وقال: أعطانيه أبو عبد الله عليه السلام وقال: هذا مد النبي صلى الله عليه وآله فعيرناه فوجدناه أربعة أمداد وهو قفيز وربع بقفيزنا هذا.
