Hadith 827
4. It is narrated that Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) said, “
Allah will shorten the life of those who claim to be an Imam except for the true one.”
وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَیْنِ عَنِ ابْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ یَحْیَی أَخِی أُدَیْمٍ عَنِ الْوَلِیدِ بْنِ صَبِیحٍ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع یَقُولُ إِنَّ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ لَا یَدَّعِیهِ غَیْرُ صَاحِبِهِ إِلَّا بَتَرَ اللَّهُ عُمُرَهُ.
