5. He said: ‘Ali ibn Muhammad al-Qarshi reported to me, by way of permission (to transmit further) from Abul Hasan ‘Ali ibn al-Hasan ibn Faddhal, who reported from al-Husayn ibn Nasr, who reported from his father, who reported from Ahmad ibn Abdulla ibn Abdul Malik, who reported from Abdul Rehman al-Masoodi, from Amru ibn Hurayth al-Ansari, from al-Husayn ibn Salemah al-Banani, from Abu Khalid al-Kabuli, from Abu Ja’far Muhammad ibn ‘Ali Al-Baqir, peace be upon him, who said: When Amirul Mu’mineen finished giving Ghusl, Kafan and Hunoot to the Prophet, peace be upon him and his progeny, he allowed people in, and said: "Enter in the grou of tens for offering your prayers upon him." They entered, and Amirul Mu’mineen stood between him (i.e. the Prophet) and them and recited: ’Surely, Allah and His angels send blessings on the Prophet. O you who believe, you should also send blessings and peace upon him.’ (al-Ahzab, 33:56)" People repeated what he said. Abu Ja’far said: "This was the prayer offered on him, peace be upon him and his progeny."
