مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ زَكَرِيَّا الْمُؤْمِنِ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمُكَارِي عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ الثُّمَالِيِّ قَالَ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ حَوْضِ زَمْزَمَ فَأَتَانِي رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ لِي لَا تَشْرَبْ مِنْ هَذَا الْمَاءِ يَا أَبَا حَمْزَةَ فَإِنَّ هَذَا يَشْتَرِكُ فِيهِ الْجِنُّ وَ الْإِنْسُ وَ هَذَا لَا يَشْتَرِكُ فِيهِ إِلَّا الْإِنْسُ قَالَ فَتَعَجَّبْتُ مِنْ قَوْلِهِ وَ قُلْتُ مِنْ أَيْنَ عَلِمَ هَذَا قَالَ ثُمَّ قُلْتُ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) مَا كَانَ مِنْ قَوْلِ الرَّجُلِ لِي فَقَالَ ( عليه السلام ) لِي إِنَّ ذَلِكَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْجِنِّ أَرَادَ إِرْشَادَكَ .

2. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Zakariya al-Mu’min from abu Sa‘id al-Mukariy from abu Hamzah al-Thumaliy who has said the following: “I once was near the pond of Zamzam when a man came and said, ‘O abu Hamzah, do not drink from this water because it is shared by both al-Jin and man, and this one is just for human beings/ I found his words strange and then thought, ‘How did he know it?’ I then asked abu Ja‘far , about it and he (the Imam) said, ‘He was a male Jinn who wanted to give you this information.’”
