2 حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الرَّزَّازُ عَنْ خَالِهِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ أَبِي الْخَطَّابِ الزَّيَّاتِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَسْبَاطٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا قَالَ أَشْرَفَ مَوْلًى لِعَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) وَ هُوَ فِي سَقِيفَةٍ لَهُ سَاجِدٌ يَبْكِي فَقَالَ لَهُ يَا مَوْلَايَ يَا عَلِيَّ بْنَ الْحُسَيْنِ أَ مَا آنَ لِحُزْنِكَ أَنْ يَنْقَضِيَ فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ إِلَيْهِ وَ قَالَ وَيْلَكَ أَوْ ثَكِلَتْكَ أُمُّكَ وَ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ شَكَا يَعْقُوبُ إِلَى رَبِّهِ فِي أَقَلَّ مِمَّا رَأَيْتَ حَتَّى قَالَ يا أَسَفى عَلى يُوسُفَ أَنَّهُ فَقَدَ ابْناً وَاحِداً وَ أَنَا رَأَيْتُ أَبِي وَ جَمَاعَةَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي يُذْبَحُونَ حَوْلِي قَالَ وَ كَانَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) يَمِيلُ إِلَى وُلْدِ عَقِيلٍ فَقِيلَ لَهُ مَا بَالُكَ تَمِيلُ إِلَى بَنِي عَمِّكَ هَؤُلَاءِ دُونَ آلِ جَعْفَرٍ فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَذْكُرُ يَوْمَهُمْ مَعَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ (ع) فَأَرِقُّ لَهُمْ
2. Muḥammad ibn Ja’far Al-Razzāz narrated to me from his uncle Muḥammad ibn Ḥusain ibn Abil Khaťťāb Al-Zayyāt, from ‘Ali ibn Asbāť, from Ismā’īl ibn Mansūr, from some of our companions, who said: One day, a servant of ‘Ali ibn Ḥusain (Imam Sajjād (a.s.)) saw him in his chamber, crying in prostration. He said, “O my master, O ‘Ali ibn Ḥusain! Is it not time for your grief to end?” Imam (a.s.) raised his head toward him and said: Woe unto you! – or may your mother weep on you! – I swear to Allāh that Ya’qūb complained to his Lord of a matter much less (painful) than that which I have seen and he said, “Alas (my grief) for Yūsuf!” (12:84). He had only lost one son but I saw my father (a.s.) and a group of my family slaughtered around me. The narrator added: ‘Ali ibn Ḥusain (Imam Sajjād (a.s.)) used to sympathize with the children of ‘Aqīl. Therefore, some people asked him, “Why do you have more sympathy for the children of ‘Aqīl than (you have for) the children of Ja’far?” He replied, “I remember their day with Abī ‘Abdillāh, Ḥusain ibn ‘Ali (a.s.), and I sympathize with them.”
