23 - حَدَّثَنا أَبي رَضِىَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قالَ: حَدَّثَنا سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّه، عَن مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى بْنِ عُبِيْد، عَن سُلَيْمان بن حَفْصٍ الْمَرْوَزِيِّ قالَ
كَتَبَ إِلَيَّ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ قُلْ فِي سَجْدَةِ الشُّكْرِ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ شُكْراً شُكْراً وَإِنْ شِئْتَ عَفْواً عَفْواً.قالَ مُصَنِّفُ هذا الْكِتاب: لَقِي سُلَيْمان بْنِ حَفْصِ مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَر عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ وَالرِّضا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ جَمِيعاً وَلا أَدْرِي هذا الخَبَرُ عَنْ أَيُّهُما هُوَ.
