8ـ مُحَمَّدٌ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبَانٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله عَمَّا يَتَحَدَّثُ النَّاسُ أَنَّهُ دُفِعَ إِلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ صَحِيفَةٌ مَخْتُومَةٌ فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ الله ﷺ لَمَّا قُبِضَ وَرِثَ علي عِلْمَهُ وَسِلاحَهُ وَمَا هُنَاكَ ثُمَّ صَارَ إِلَى الْحَسَنِ ثُمَّ صَارَ إِلَى الْحُسَيْنِ قَالَ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ صَارَ إِلَى عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ثُمَّ صَارَ إِلَى ابْنِهِ ثُمَّ انْتَهَى إِلَيْكَ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ.

8. Muhammad has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from Fudala from ‘Umar ibn Aban who has said the following. “I asked abu ‘Abdallah , ‘People say that a sealed page (or pages) was given to ’Umm Salama. Is it true?’” The Imam said, “When the Messenger of Allah passed away, Ali inherited his knowledge, his Armaments and whatever was with it. Then it was transferred to al-Hassan then to al-Husayn.” The narrator has said that then said to the Imam , “Then it was transferred to Ali ibn al-Husayn then to his son then it ended up to you.” The Imam said, “That is true.”
