hadith 267
(8) Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Sa’eed bin Oqda narrated from Muhammad bin al-Mufadhdhal bin Qayss bin Rummana al-Ash’ari, Sa’dan bin Iss’haq bin Sa’eed, Ahmad bin al-Husayn bin Abdul Melik and Muhammad bin al-Hasan al-Qatawani all from al-Hasan bin Mahboob az-Zarrad from Hisham bin Salim from Yazeed al-Kinasi that Abu Ja’far al-Baqir (as) had said
“The man of this matter has a likeness to Prophet Joseph (as). He is a son of a (black) bondmaid. Allah will make him succeed within a night.” The likeness to Prophet Joseph (as) concerns the disappearance.

سمعت أبا جعفر محمد بن علي الباقر يقول: إنّ صاحب هذا الأمر فيه شبه من يوسف؛ ابن أمة سوداء، يصلح الله له أمره في ليلة واحدة.
