I heard Aba Abdillah عليه السلام say: may Allah curse Burayd! and may Allah curse Zurara!

"I doubted my testimony." Imam (as) said: "He must pay the blood money." I said: What if he said: "I testified against him intentionally"? Imam (as) said: "He is to be executed."

“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘Ghusl (bath), hunut, and shroud are done for people stoned to death, male or female, prior to executing stoning, then Salah (prayer) is performed. Ghusl (bath), hunut, shrouding and Salah (prayer) for one executed because of retaliation are also done before the execution.”’

"I prayed with Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) for forty mornings. Whenever he finished the prayer, he would raise his hands toward the sky and say: Asbahna wa asbaha al-mulku lillah. Allahumma inna ‘ibaduka wa abna’u ‘ibadika. Allahumma ihfazna min haythu nahtafiz wa min haythu la nahtafiz. Allahumma uhrosna min haythu nahtarisu wa min haythu la nahtarisu. Allahumma usturna min haythu nastatiru wa min haythu la nastatiru. Allahumma usturna bil-ghina wa al-‘afiyah. Allahumma urzuqna al-‘afiyah wa dawama al-‘afiyah, wa urzuqna ash-shukra ‘ala al-‘afiyah 'We have entered the morning and the dominion belongs to Allah (swt). O’ Allah (swt), we are Your servants, the children of Your servants. O’ Allah (swt), protect us from every angle we strive to protect ourselves from and from angles we do not perceive. O’ Allah (swt), guard us from every direction we seek to guard ourselves and from those we do not foresee. O’ Allah (swt), conceal us with sufficiency and wellbeing. O’ Allah (swt), grant us wellbeing and the continuity of wellbeing and grant us the thankfulness for this wellbeing.'"

“I used to eat one meal in twenty four hours. I would ask permission to see abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.) at such time that I would expect that their table cloth is collected and they have fished their meal. When I would arrive he would ask to return the table cloth. I would find food in it but it would not harm me while if I would eat with others again I could not do so and it would become very difficult for me to sleep because of gases. I complained about it before the Imam (a.s.) and said that if I would eat from your table it does not harm me. He said, “O abu Sayyar, it is because you eat from the table of the virtuous people. Angels shake hands with them on their furnishings.” The narrator has said that I then asked, “Do they (angels) appear to you?” He has said, “The Imam (a.s.) wiped his hand over one of his children and said, ‘They are more kind to our children than we ourselves are.”
