18 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي وَ أَخِي رَحِمَهُمَا اللَّهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ إِدْرِيسَ وَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى جَمِيعاً عَنِ الْعَمْرَكِيِّ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْبُوفَكِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى وَ كَانَ فِي خِدْمَةِ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ الثَّانِي (ع) عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ الْجَمَّالِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ فِي طَرِيقِ الْمَدِينَةِ وَ نَحْنُ نُرِيدُ المكة [مَكَّةَ فَقُلْتُ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مَا لِي أَرَاكَ كَئِيباً حَزِيناً مُنْكَسِراً فَقَالَ لَوْ تَسْمَعُ مَا أَسْمَعُ لَشَغَلَكَ عَنْ مَسْأَلَتِي قُلْتُ فَمَا الَّذِي تَسْمَعُ قَالَ ابْتِهَالَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَلَى قَتَلَةِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ قَتَلَةِ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) وَ نَوْحَ الْجِنِّ وَ بُكَاءَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ الَّذِينَ حَوْلَهُ وَ شِدَّةَ جَزَعِهِمْ فَمَنْ يَتَهَنَّأُ مَعَ هَذَا بِطَعَامٍ أَوْ بِشَرَابٍ أَوْ نَوْمٍ وَ ذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ
18. My father and my brother both narrated to me from Aḥmad ibn Idrīs, and from Muḥammad ibn Yaḥyā, from ‘Amraki ibn ‘Ali Al-Būfaki, from Yaḥyā – who was the servant of Abī Ja’far the Second (Imam Jawād (a.s.)), from ‘Ali (ibn Ḥakam Al-Kūfi), from Safwān Al-Jammāl, who said: I asked Abā ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) on the route from Madīnah to Makkah, “O son of the Messenger of Allāh! Why do I see you so depressed, saddened, and grieved?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “If you could hear that which I hear, you would have been distracted from asking me this question.” I asked, “What do you hear?” Imam (a.s.) replied: (I hear the voice of) the angels beseeching Allāh, the Great and Almighty, to curse the killers of the Commander of the Believers and the killers of Ḥusain (a.s.). And (I hear the voice of) lamentation of the Jinn and the intense restlessness and weeping of the angels who are around him (Imam Ḥusain (a.s.)). So who can enjoy food, drink, or sleeping after hearing these voices?!
