4ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ عَنِ الْخَيْبَرِيِّ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ ظَبْيَانَ وَمُفَضَّلِ بْنِ عُمَرَ وَأَبِي سَلَمَةَ السَّرَّاجِ وَالْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ ثُوَيْرِ بْنِ أَبِي فَاخِتَةَ قَالُوا كُنَّا عِنْدَ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله فَقَالَ عِنْدَنَا خَزَائِنُ الارْضِ وَمَفَاتِيحُهَا وَلَوْ شِئْتُ أَنْ أَقُولَ بِإِحْدَى رِجْلَيَّ أَخْرِجِي مَا فِيكِ مِنَ الذَّهَبِ لاخْرَجَتْ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ بِإِحْدَى رِجْلَيْهِ فَخَطَّهَا فِي الارْضِ خَطّاً فَانْفَرَجَتِ الارْضُ ثُمَّ قَالَ بِيَدِهِ فَأَخْرَجَ سَبِيكَةَ ذَهَبٍ قَدْرَ شِبْرٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ انْظُرُوا حَسَناً فَنَظَرْنَا فَإِذَا سَبَائِكُ كَثِيرَةٌ بَعْضُهَا عَلَى بَعْضٍ يَتَلالا فَقَالَ لَهُ بَعْضُنَا جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ أُعْطِيتُمْ مَا أُعْطِيتُمْ وَشِيعَتُكُمْ مُحْتَاجُونَ قَالَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ الله سَيَجْمَعُ لَنَا وَلِشِيعَتِنَا الدُّنْيَا وَالاخِرَةَ وَيُدْخِلُهُمْ جَنَّاتِ النَّعِيمِ وَيُدْخِلُ عَدُوَّنَا الْجَحِيمَ.

4. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ‘Umar ibn ‘Abd al-‘Aziz from al-Khaybari from Yunus ibn Zabyan and al-Mufaddal ibn ‘Umar and abu Salama al-Sarraj and al-Husayn ibn Thuwayr ibn abu Fakhita who have said the following. “Once we were in the presence of abu ‘Abdallah and he said, “We have the key to the treassures of the earth. If I would say to one of my foot to say to the earth, ‘Let out whatever all the gold that is there in you, it will do so.” The narrator has said that he then said to one of his feet and made aline withit on earth, the earth rapped open then said to his hand that took out a brick of gold that was of the size of a hand.” He then said, “Watch carefully.” We then looked again and saw many such pieces of gold one over the other shining. A certain one of us said, May Allah take my soul in service for your cause, “You have been granted whatever there is but your Shi‘a are needy.” The narrator has said that the Imam then said, “Allah will soon grant us and our Shi‘a the bounties of both this and the next life. He will admit them in Paradise and its blessings. There will be hell for our enemies.”
