Translation

4-2 In another tradition it is narrated that Muhammad ibn Al-Hassan ibn Ahmad ibn al-Valid - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Muhammad ibn Al-Hassan As-Saffar and Sa’d ibn Abdullah quoted on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa Al-Ash’ari, on the authority of Al-Hassan ibn Ali ibn Yaqteen, on the authority of his brother Al-Hussein, on the authority of his father Ali ibn Yaqteen, “I was with Abil Hassan Musa ibn Ja’far (s). His son Ali (Al-Ridha (s)) was with him. Then he said, ‘O Ali, This son of mine is the master of my children. I put my nickname on him.’ Then Hisham (who heard this from me) hit himself on the forehead and said, ‘Verily from God we are! Imam Al-Kadhim (s) has thus informed you of his upcoming death.’”
