Shaykh Muḥammad b. ʿAlī al-Ṣaduq · On Imam Al-kazim’s (s) Clear Appointment of Imam al-Ridha (s)
21 - نَصٌّ آخَرُ: حَدَّثَنا المُظَفَّرُ بْنِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ المُظَفَّرِ العَلَوِيُّ السَمَرْقَنْدِيُ رَضِىَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قال: حَدَّثَني جَعْفَرُ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، عَنْ أَبيهِ، عَنْ يُوسُفَ بْنِ السَّخْتِ، عَنْ عَلِىِّ بْنِ القاسِم، عَنْ أَبيهِ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ خَلَفٍ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ الخَطَّابِ، قالَ: كانَ أَبُو الحَسَن عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ يَبْتَدِءُ بِالثَّناءِ عَلَى ابْنِهِ عَلِيِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ وَيُطْرِيهِ وَيَذْكُرُ مِنْ فَضْلِهُ وَبِرِّهِ ما لا يَذْكُرُ من غَيْرِهِ، كَأَنَّهُ يُرِيدُ أَن يَدُلَّ عَلَيْهِ.
4-21 In another tradition it is narrated that Al-Mudhaffar ibn Ja’far Al-Mudhaffar Al-Alawi As-Samarqandi - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Ja’far ibn Muhammad ibn Masoud quoted on the authority of his father, on the authority of Yusuf ibn As-Sakht, on the authority of Ali ibn al-Qasim, on the authority of his father, on the authority of Ja’far ibn Khalaf, on the authority of Isma’il ibn al-Khattab, “Abul Hassan (s) often praised his son Ali (s), and expressed his nobilities and virtues in a manner in which he never praised others. It was as if he wanted to attract their attention to him.”
