Arabic text

1 - حدثنا محمد بن علي ماجيلويه رحمه الله، عن عمه محمد بن أبي القاسم، عن أحمد بن أبي عبد الله البرقي، عن أبيه، عن محمد بن سنان، عن أبي الجارود، عن محمد بن بشر الهمداني قال: سمعت محمد بن الحنفية يقول: حدثني أمير المؤمنين عليه السلام أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم يوم القيامة آخذ بحجزة الله، ونحن آخذون بحجزة نبينا، و شيعتنا آخذون بحجزتنا، قلت: يا أمير المؤمنين وما الحجزة؟ قال: الله أعظم من أن يوصف بالحجزة أو غير ذلك، ولكن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم آخذ بأمر الله، ونحن آل محمد آخذون بأمر نبينا وشيعتنا آخذون بأمرنا.

Translation

1. Muhammad ibn `Ali Majilwayh (RA) said on the authority of his paternal uncle Muhammad ibn Abu al-Qasim, on the authority of Ahmad ibn Abu `Abd Allah al-Barqi, on the authority his father, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Sinan, on the authority of Abu al-Jarud, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Bishr al-Hamdani that: I heard Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah say The Command of the Faithful (AS) related to me: “The Messenger of Allah (SA) will take hold of Allah’s Waistband [hujzah]. We will take hold of the Prophet’s Waistband, and our Shi`ites will take hold of our Waistband.” I asked, “O Commander of the Faithful, what is the Waistband.” He answered, “Allah is greater than being characterized with a waistband or other than that. However, the Messenger of Allah (SA) will take hold of Allah’s Affair [amr]. We will take hold of the Prophet’s Affair, and our followers [Shi`ah] will take hold of Our Affair.”
