Translation

H 112 - Informed me a group of scholar from Muhammad bin Yaqub from Ali Ashari from Husain bin Abdullah from Hasan from Musa Khashshab from Hasan bin Sama-a from Ali bin Hasan bin Rabat from Ibn Uzniyya from Zurarah that he said: I heard Imam Muhammad Baqir (a.s) say: Twelve Imams from Aale Muhammad (a.s) were all Muhaddath and they were from the descendants of the Messenger of Allah (s) and Ali Ibn Abi Talib (a.s). Thus the Messenger of Allah (s) and Imam Ali (a.s) are their fathers.
