۞
47-4 Muhammad ibn Yahya al-Attar - may God be pleased with him - narrated Muhammad ibn Yahya al-Attar quoted on the authority of Muhammad ibn Ahmad al-Ash’ari, on the authority of Imran ibn Musa, on the authority of Abil Hassan Dawood ibn Muhammad an-Nahdi, on the authority of Ali ibn Ja’far that he had heard Abil Hassan at-Tayyeb say, “
When Abul Hassan Musa ibn Ja’far passed away, Abul Hassan Ali ibn Musa Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) went to the bazzar and bought a dog, a ram and a cock. Then when the agents wrote to Harun about this he said, ‘Now I am secure from his side.’ Later on, Az-Zobayri (who was a security agent)wrote that Ali ibn Musa Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) has opened up the door of his house and is inviting the people towards himself. Then Harun said, ‘How strange this agent is? He himself wrote that Ali ibn Musa (a.s.) went out and bought a dog, a ram and a cock and now he is writing this stuff!’”
4 - حَدَّثَنا مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُوسَى المُتَوَكِّل رَضِىَ اللهُ عَنْهُقالَ: حَدَّثَنا مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى العَطَّار عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدِ الأَشْعَرِيِّ عَنْ عِمْران بْنِ مُوسَى عَنْ أَبي الحَسَن داوُدِ بْنِ مُحَمَّد النَّهْدِيِّ عَنْ عَلِىِّ بْنِ‏عَنْ أَبي الحَسَن الطَّيِّبِ قالَ
سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ دَخَلَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُوسَى الرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ السُّوقَ فَاشْتَرَى كَلْباً وَكَبْشاً وَدِيكاً فَلَمَّا كَتَبَ صَاحِبُ الْخَبَرِ إِلَى هَارُونَ بِذَلِكَ قَالَ قَدْ أَمِنَّا جَانِبَهُ وَكَتَبَ الزُّبَيْرِيُّ أَنَّ عَلِيَّ بْنَ مُوسَى‏ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ قَدْ فَتَحَ بَابَهُ وَدَعَا إِلَى نَفْسِهِ فَقَالَ هَارُونُ وَا عَجَبَا مِنْ هَذَا يَكْتُبُ أَنَّ عَلِيَّ بْنَ مُوسَى قَدِ اشْتَرَى كَلْباً وَدِيكاً وَكَبْشاً وَيَكْتُبُ فِيهِ مَا يَكْتُبُ.
