8. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad and Ali ibn Muhammad from Sahl ibn Ziyad all from Ibn Mahbub from Abu Hamza from Abu Ja‘far (a.s.) who has said the following.
“When Amir al-Mu’minin Ali (a.s.) passed away, al-Hasan ibn Ali stoop up in the Mosque if Kufa. He praises Allah and spoke of His Glory prayed to Allah to grant blessings up on the Holy Prophet (s.a) and then he said this. People tonight a man has passed away the like whom can not be found in previous and the coming generations. He was the standard bearer of the Messenger of Allah, with Jibril on his right Mika'il on his left. He would not turn back until Allah would grant him victory. All that he has left of the worldly belongings is a seven hundred Dirham extra from his gifts with which he wanted to buy (hire) a servant for his household. By Allah, he died during a night in which the executor of the will of Musa (Moses) Yusha‘ ibn Nun had passed away, the night in which Jesus son of Mary was taken to heavens and the night in which the Holy Quran was revealed.”
8ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ جَمِيعاً عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ ابي جعفر (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
لَمَّا قُبِضَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَامَ الْحَسَنُ بن علي (عَلَيْهما السَّلام) فِي مَسْجِدِ الْكُوفَةِ فَحَمِدَ الله وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ وَصَلَّى عَلَى النَّبِيِّ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) ثُمَّ قَالَ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّهُ قَدْ قُبِضَ فِي هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ رَجُلٌ مَا سَبَقَهُ الاوَّلُونَ وَلا يُدْرِكُهُ الاخِرُونَ إِنَّهُ كَانَ لَصَاحِبَ رَايَةِ رَسُولِ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) عَنْ يَمِينِهِ جَبْرَئِيلُ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ مِيكَائِيلُ لا يَنْثَنِي حَتَّى يَفْتَحَ الله لَهُ وَالله مَا تَرَكَ بَيْضَاءَ وَلا حَمْرَاءَ إِلا سَبْعَمِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ فَضَلَتْ عَنْ عَطَائِهِ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَشْتَرِيَ بِهَا خَادِماً لاهْلِهِ وَالله لَقَدْ قُبِضَ فِي اللَّيْلَةِ الَّتِي فِيهَا قُبِضَ وَصِيُّ مُوسَى يُوشَعُ بْنُ نُونٍ وَاللَّيْلَةِ الَّتِي عُرِجَ فِيهَا بِعِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ وَاللَّيْلَةِ الَّتِي نُزِّلَ فِيهَا الْقُرْآنُ.
