Chapter 11 | Evidence of the Imamate of Imam Musa Kadhim and refutation of Waqifiya

31- قال وحدثني أبو محمد الصيرفي عن الحسين بن سليمان عن ضريس الكناسي عن أبي خالد الكابلي قال سمعت علي بن الحسين عليه السلام وهو يقول: إن قارون كان يلبس الثياب الحمر وإن فرعون كان يلبس السود ويرخي الشعور فبعث الله عليهم موسى عليه السلام وإن بني فلان لبسوا السواد وأرخوا الشعور وإن الله تعالى مهلكهم بسميه.

H 31 - Narrated to me Abu Muhammad Sairafi from Husain bin Sulaiman from Zaris Kanasi from Abu Khalid Kabuli that he said: I heard Imam Zainul Abideen say: Qaroon dressed in red and Firon used to dress in black; and he used to leave his hair loose and they fell on the two sides of his head; and Almighty Allah sent Musa with prophethood. And the sons of so and so (Bani Abbas) also dress in black; and leave their hair loose and they fall on the sides of their heads; and Almighty Allah will also destroy them through his namesake (Musa).
