Hadith 626 8ـ مُحَمَّدٌ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبَانٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) عَمَّا يَتَحَدَّثُ النَّاسُ أَنَّهُ دُفِعَ إِلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ صَحِيفَةٌ مَخْتُومَةٌ فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) لَمَّا قُبِضَ وَرِثَ علي (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) عِلْمَهُ وَسِلاحَهُ وَمَا هُنَاكَ ثُمَّ صَارَ إِلَى الْحَسَنِ ثُمَّ صَارَ إِلَى الْحُسَيْنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ صَارَ إِلَى عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ثُمَّ صَارَ إِلَى ابْنِهِ ثُمَّ انْتَهَى إِلَيْكَ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ.
8. Muhammad has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from Fudala from ‘Umar ibn Aban who has said the following. “I asked abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.), ‘People say that a sealed page (or pages) was given to ’Umm Salama. Is it true?’” The Imam (a.s.) said, “When the Messenger of Allah passed away, Ali (a.s.) inherited his knowledge, his Armaments and whatever was with it. Then it was transferred to al-Hassan then to al-Husayn.” The narrator has said that then said to the Imam (a.s.), “Then it was transferred to Ali ibn al-Husayn (a.s.) then to his son then it ended up to you.” The Imam (a.s.) said, “That is true.”
