207 / 1 - حدثنا الشيخ الفقيه أبو جعفر محمد بن علي بن الحسين بن موسى ابن بابويه القمي (رحمه الله)، قال: حدثنا أبي (رضي الله عنه)، قال: حدثنا علي بن موسى بن جعفر بن أبي جعفر الكمنداني (1)، قال: حدثنا أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى، عن عبد الرحمن بن أبي نجران، عن جعفر بن محمد الكوفي، عن عبيد الله (2) السمين، عن سعد بن طريف، عن الاصبغ بن نباتة، قال: بينا أمير المؤمنين (عليه السلام) يخطب الناس وهو يقول: سلوني قبل أن تفقدوني، فو الله لا تسألوني عن شئ مضى ولا عن شئ يكون إلا أنبأتكم به. فقام إليه سعد بن أبي وقاص، فقال: يا أمير المؤمنين، أخبرني كم في رأسي ولحيتي من شعرة؟ فقال له: أما والله لقد سألتني عن مسألة حدثني خليلي رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله) أنك ستسألني عنها، وما في رأسك ولحيتك من شعرة إلا وفي أصلها شيطان جالس، وإن في بيتك لسخلا يقتل الحسين ابني، وعمر بن سعد يومئذ يدرج بين يديه (1).
Abu Ja`far Muhammad b. `Ali b. al-Husayn b. Musa b. Babuyeh al Qummi (rh) narrated to us. He said: My father (ra) said: `Ali b. Musa b. Ja`far b. Abu Ja`far al Kamandani narrated to us. He said: Ahmad b. Muhammad b. `Isa narrated to us from `Abd al Rahman b. Abu Najran from Ja`far b. Muhammad al-Kufi from `Ubaydullah al-Simeen from Sa`d b. Turayf from al-Asbagh b. Nabatah. He said: Amir al-Mu’minin (as) said, while addressing the people publicly: Ask me before you lose me, for, by Allah, there is not a thing from the past nor a thing present which you ask of me but that I can inform you about it. Sa`d b. Abi Waqqas stood up before him and said: O Amir al-Mu’minin! Tell me how many hairs there are on my head and in my beard. So, he said to him: Surely, by Allah, you have asked me regarding an issue which my friend, the Messenger of Allah (sw) had told me about – that you shall surely ask regarding it. There is not a hair on your head nor in your beard but that at its root, is a devil, seated. There is an infant in your house who shall kill al-Husayn, my son. `Umar b. Sa`d was at that time a toddler, walking upon his hands [and knees].
