216 / 10 - حدثنا محمد بن إبراهيم بن إسحاق (رحمه الله)، قال: حدثنا عبد العزيز ابن يحيى البصري (2)، قال: حدثنا محمد بن زكريا الجوهري، عن [ جعفر بن ] (3) محمد بن عمارة، عن أبيه، عن الصادق جعفر بن محمد، عن أبيه محمد بن علي، عن آبائه الصادقين (عليهم السلام)، قال: قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله): إن الله تبارك وتعالى جعل لاخي علي بن أبي طالب فضائل لا يحصي عددها غيره، فمن ذكر فضيلة من فضائله مقرا بها غفر الله له ما تقدم من ذنبه وما تأخر، ولو وافى القيامة بذنوب الثقلين، ومن كتب فضيلة من فضائل علي بن أبي طالب (عليه السلام) لم تزل الملائكة تستغفر له ما بقي لتلك الكتابة رسم، ومن استمع إلى فضيلة من فضائله غفر الله له الذنوب التي اكتسبها بالاستماع، ومن نظر إلى كتابة في فضائله غفر الله له الذنوب التي اكتسبها بالنظر. ثم قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله): النظر إلى علي بن أبي طالب عبادة، وذكره عبادة، ولا يقبل إيمان عبد إلا بولايته والبراءة من أعدائه (4).
Muhammad b. Ibrahim b. Ishaq (rh) narrated to us. He said: `Abd al-`Aziz b. Yahya al-Basri narrated to us. He said: Muhammad b. Zakariyya al-Jawhari narrated to us from [Ja`far b.] Muhammad b. `Imarah from his father from al-Sadiq Ja`far b. Muhammad from his father Muhammad b. `Ali from his truthful fathers (as). He said: The Messenger of Allah (s) said: Surely, Allah assigned virtues to my brother `Ali b. Abi Talib which cannot be enumerated by anyone other than Him. So, whoever mentions a virtue from his many virtues, acknowledging it, Allah will forgive him his past sins and the latter ones, even if he were to come on the Resurrection with the sins of the two heavyweights (men and jinn). Whoever writes down a virtue from the virtues of `Ali b. Abu Talib (as), the angels shall not descend but seeking forgiveness for him as long as that descriptive writing remains. Whoever listens to a virtue from his virtues, Allah will forgive him the sins which he would have acquired through his hearing. Whoever looks at a writing about his virtues, Allah will forgive him the sins which he would have acquired through sight. Then the Messenger of Allah (s) said: Looking towards `Ali b. Abu Talib is worship. His mention is worship. And the faith of a servant is not accepted save through his wilaya and dissociation from his enemies.
