The Sufficient (Vol 8) · Hadith 48 (#Ḥadīth #1)

عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ عَنِ الْبَرْقِيِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ قَالَ بَيْنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عِيسَى فِي دَارِهِ الَّتِي فِي الْمَسْعَى يُشْرِفُ عَلَى الْمَسْعَى إِذْ رَأَى أَبَا الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى ( عليه السلام ) مُقْبِلًا مِنَ الْمَرْوَةِ عَلَى بَغْلَةٍ فَأَمَرَ ابْنُ هَيَّاجٍ رَجُلًا مِنْ هَمْدَانَ مُنْقَطِعاً إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يَتَعَلَّقَ بِلِجَامِهِ وَ يَدَّعِيَ الْبَغْلَةَ فَأَتَاهُ فَتَعَلَّقَ بِاللِّجَامِ وَ ادَّعَى الْبَغْلَةَ فَثَنَى أَبُو الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) رِجْلَهُ فَنَزَلَ عَنْهَا وَ قَالَ لِغِلْمَانِهِ خُذُوا سَرْجَهَا وَ ادْفَعُوهَا إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ وَ السَّرْجُ أَيْضاً لِي فَقَالَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) كَذَبْتَ عِنْدَنَا الْبَيِّنَةُ بِأَنَّهُ سَرْجُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ وَ أَمَّا الْبَغْلَةُ فَإِنَّا اشْتَرَيْنَاهَا مُنْذُ قَرِيبٍ وَ أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ وَ مَا قُلْتَ.

48. From him, from Ahmad, from Al-Barqy, from Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Hammaad Bin usmaan who said: ‘Musa Bin Isa was in his house which was in the place of Sa’ee (nearby the Kaaba), overlooking it when he saw Abu Al-Hassan Musa coming from Al-Marwa upon his mule. So he ordered Ibn Hayyaaj, a man from Hamdaan who was very close to him to go and hold on to the reins and make a claim for the mule. So he came up to him , held on to the reins, and staked a claim for the mule. Abu Al-Hassan took his feet off and dismounted from it and said to his servant: ‘Take the saddle and hand (the mule) over to him’. He said, ‘And the saddle is mine as well’. So Abu Al-Hassan said: ‘You are lying, for we have clear proof that it is the saddle of Muhammad Bin Ali , and as for the mule, so we have bought it not so long ago and you know it, and what you are saying’.
