Arabic text

حدثنا جعفر بن محمد بن مسرور - رحمه الله - قال: حدثنا الحسين بن محمد بن عامر عن المعلى بن محمد البصري قال: حدثني علي بن رباط قال: قلت لعلي بن موسى الرضا عليهما السلام: إن عندنا رجلا يذكر أن أباك  عليه السلام حي وأنك تعلم من ذلك ما تعلم؟ فقال  عليه السلام: سبحان الله مات رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله، ولم يمت موسى بن جعفر؟! بلى والله لقد مات وقسمت أمواله ونكحت جواريه.

Translation

It is narrated from Ja’far bin Muhammad bin Masroor from Husain bin Muhammad bin Aamir from Mualla bin Muhammad Basri from Ali bin Rabat that he said: “I asked Ali bin Musa al-Ridha: There is a person who says that your holy father is alive though you know about him very well. Imam said: Glory be to Allah! The Holy Prophet has passed away and Musa bin Ja’far has not? Yes, by Allah, certainly he has passed away, his property is distributed among his heirs and his slave-girls have remarried.”
