The Source of Traditions on Imam al-Riḍā (Vol 1) · Hadith 11 (#Ḥadīth #2)

2 - نَصٌّ آخَرُ: حَدَّثَنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الحَسَن بْنِ أَحْمَدِ بْنِ الوَلِيد رَضِىَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قالَ: حَدَّثَنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الحَسَن الصَفَّار؛ وَسَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّه جَمِيعاً، عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى الأَشْعَرِيِّ، عَنْ الحَسَن بْنِ علىِ بن يَقْطِينٍ، عَنْ أَخِيهِ الحُسَيْن، عَنْ أَبيهِ عَلِىِّ بْنِ يَقْطِينٍ قالَ: كُنْتُ عِنْدَ أَبي الحَسَن مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرعَلَيْهِمَا السَّلاَمُ وَعنْدَهُ عَليٌّ اِبْنُهُ، فَقالَ: يا عَلِيُّ هذا اِبْنِي سَيِّدُ وُلِدِي، وَقَدْ نَحَلْتُهُ كُنْيَتِي، قالَ: فَضَرَبَ هِشامِ - يَعْنِي ابْنِ سالِمٍ - يَدَهُ عَلَى جَبْهَتِهِ ! فَقالَ: إنَّا لِلَّهِ نَعى وَاللَّهِ إِلَيْكَ نَفْسَهُ.

4-2 In another tradition it is narrated that Muhammad ibn Al-Hassan ibn Ahmad ibn al-Valid - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Muhammad ibn Al-Hassan As-Saffar and Sa’d ibn Abdullah quoted on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa Al-Ash’ari, on the authority of Al-Hassan ibn Ali ibn Yaqteen, on the authority of his brother Al-Hussein, on the authority of his father Ali ibn Yaqteen, “I was with Abil Hassan Musa ibn Ja’far (s). His son Ali (Al-Ridha (s)) was with him. Then he said, ‘O Ali, This son of mine is the master of my children. I put my nickname on him.’ Then Hisham (who heard this from me) hit himself on the forehead and said, ‘Verily from God we are! Imam Al-Kadhim (s) has thus informed you of his upcoming death.’”
