حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَی بْنِ الْمُتَوَکِّلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ السَّرِیِّ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ الْحَکَمِ عَنْ أَبِی الْمَغْرَاءِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: مَنْ قَالَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ مِنْ غَیْرِ تَعَجُّبٍ خَلَقَ اللَّهُ مِنْهَا طَائِراً یُرَفْرِفُ عَلَی رَأْسِ صَاحِبِهَا إِلَی أَنْ تَقُومَ السَّاعَهُ وَ یَذْکُرُ قَائِلَهَا.
