حدثنا محمد بن عمر الحافظ الجعابي، قال: حدثني أبو الحسن موسى بن محمد ابن الحسن الثقفي، قال: حدثنا الحسن بن محمد، قال: حدثنا صفوان بن يحيى بياع السابري، عن يعقوب بن شعيب، عن أبان بن تغلب، قال: سألت أبا جعفر محمد بن علي عليهم السلام عن قول النبي صلى الله عليه وآله: " من كنت مولاه فعلي مولاه " فقال: يا أبا سعيد تسأل عن مثل هذا؟ علمهم أنه يقوم فيهم مقامه.

Translation

2. We were told by Muhammed bin Umar, the Keeper, al-Ju’abi, that he said: I was told by Abu’l-Hasan, Musa bin Muhammed ibn Hasan al-Thaqafi, that he said: We were told by Hasan bin Muhammed, that he said: We were told by Safwan bin Yahya, the seller of fine cloth, from Ya’qoub bin Shu’ayb, from Aban bin Taghlib, that he said: I asked Abu Ja’far, Muhammed bin Ali, peace be upon them both, about the saying of the Prophet, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family: Whoever I am his Leader, then Ali is his Leader. Then he said: O Abu Sa’eed, are you asking about a thing such as this?
