43 - حَدَّثَنا مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُوسَى بْنِ المُتَوَكِّل قالَ: حَدَّثَناعَبْدِ اللَّه بْنِ جَعْفَر الحِمْيَريُّ عَنْ‏مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ سَعِيدُ بْنِ سَعْد عَنْ أَبي الحَسَن الرِّضا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ أَنَّهُ نَظَرَ إِلى رَجُل فَقالَ لَهُ: ياأوص تُريد وَاستعد لَمّا لا بُدَّ مِنْهُ فَكانَ كَما قالَ فَمات بَعْد ذلِكَ بِثَلاثَةِ أَيَّام.
47-43 Muhammad ibn Musa ibn al-Mutawakkil - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Abdullah ibn Ja’far al-Hemyari quoted on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa, on the authority of Sa’eed ibn Sa’d, “Abul Hassan Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) looked at a man and said, ‘O Servant of God! Make a will regarding what you wish to be done after your death and prepare yourself for that from which there is no escape.’ Exactly what the Imam (a.s.) had said happened three days later (i.e. the man died).”
