عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ لَمَّا هَبَطَ نُوحٌ ( عليه السلام ) مِنَ السَّفِينَةِ غَرَسَ غَرْساً وَ كَانَ فِيمَا غَرَسَ ( عليه السلام ) الْحَبَلَةُ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فَجَاءَ إِبْلِيسُ لَعَنَهُ اللَّهُ فَقَلَعَهَا ثُمَّ إِنَّ نُوحاً ( عليه السلام ) عَادَ إِلَى غَرْسِهِ فَوَجَدَهُ عَلَى حَالِهِ وَ وَجَدَ الْحَبَلَةَ قَدْ قُلِعَتْ وَ وَجَدَ إِبْلِيسَ لَعَنَهُ اللَّهُ عِنْدَهَافَأَتَاهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ ( عليه السلام ) فَأَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ إِبْلِيسَ لَعَنَهُ اللَّهُ قَلَعَهَا فَقَالَ نُوحٌ لِإِبْلِيسَ مَا دَعَاكَ إِلَى قَلْعِهَا فَوَ اللَّهِ مَا غَرَسْتُ غَرْساً أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِنْهَا وَ وَ اللَّهِ لَا أَدَعُهَا حَتَّى أَغْرِسَهَا فَقَالَ إِبْلِيسُ وَ أَنَا وَ اللَّهِ لَا أَدَعُهَا حَتَّى أَقْلَعَهَافَقَالَ لَهُ اجْعَلْ لِي مِنْهَا نَصِيباً قَالَ فَجَعَلَ لَهُ مِنْهَا الثُّلُثَ فَأَبَى أَنْ يَرْضَى فَجَعَلَ لَهُ النِّصْفَ فَأَبَى أَنْ يَرْضَى فَأَبَى نُوحٌ ( عليه السلام ) أَنْ يَزِيدَهُ فَقَالَ جَبْرَئِيلُ ( عليه السلام ) لِنُوحٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَحْسِنْ فَإِنَّ مِنْكَ الْإِحْسَانَ فَعَلِمَ نُوحٌ ( عليه السلام ) أَنَّهُ قَدْ جَعَلَ لَهُ عَلَيْهَا سُلْطَاناً فَجَعَلَ نُوحٌ ( عليه السلام ) لَهُ الثُّلُثَيْنِفَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) فَإِذَا أَخَذْتَ عَصِيراً فَاطْبُخْهُ حَتَّى يَذْهَبَ الثُّلُثَانِ وَ كُلْ وَ اشْرَبْ فَذَاكَ نَصِيبُ الشَّيْطَانِ .

3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn abu Nasr from Aban from Zurarah who has said the following: “Abu Ja‘far , has said, ‘When Noah , disembarked from the ark, he established a plantation and of the things that he planted was a vine of grapes. He went back to his family and Iblis, may he be condemned, uprooted it. Noah , went to his plantation. He found everything in its condition except the grape vine that was uprooted. He found Iblis, may he be condemned, nearby. Jibril ‘Alayhi al-Salam, came and informed him that Iblis, may he be condemned, has uprooted it. Noah asked Iblis, ‘What made you to uproot it? None of my plantations is more beloved to me than this. I by Allah will not allow it without being planted? Iblis said, ‘I, by Allah, will not allow it to grow without my uprooting? He asked Noah to give him a share? He (the Imam) said, ‘Noah then gave him a share of one-third but he rejected. He gave him one-half and he rejected. Noah also refused to increase but Jibril ‘Alayhi al-Salam said to Noah, ‘O Messenger of Allah, you should do him a favor because it comes from you? Noah then noticed that the authority over it is given to him so Noah left two-thirds for him? Abu Ja‘far , has said, ‘If you have grape juice; boil it until two-thirds of it evaporates; then eat and drink and that (which is gone evaporated) is the share of Satan?”
