1. Ahmad ibn Idris has narrated from Muhammad ibn Abd al-Jabbar, from Abu al-Qasim al-Kufi, from Muhammad ibn Sahl, from Ibrahim ibn Abi Bilad, from Isma'il ibn Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Ali ibn al-Husayn that Abu Ja'far (al-Baqir) (as) said
When Ali ibn al-Husayn (as) was on his deathbed, he took out a box or chest that was with him and said, "O Muhammad, carry this chest." So he carried it between four men. When he passed away, his brothers came claiming what was in the chest and said, "Give us our share of the chest." He replied, "By God, you have no share in it. If you had a share in it, he would not have entrusted it to me." In the chest were the weapons of the Messenger of God (saw) and his books.
1 ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ أَبِي الْقَاسِمِ الْكُوفِيِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَهْلٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ أَبِي الْبِلادِ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ ابي جعفر (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
لَمَّا حَضَرَ عَلِيَّ بن الحسين (عَلَيْهما السَّلام) الْوَفَاةُ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ أَخْرَجَ سَفَطاً أَوْ صُنْدُوقاً عِنْدَهُ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ احْمِلْ هَذَا الصُّنْدُوقَ قَالَ فَحَمَلَ بَيْنَ أَرْبَعَةٍ فَلَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ جَاءَ إِخْوَتُهُ يَدَّعُونَ مَا فِي الصُّنْدُوقِ فَقَالُوا أَعْطِنَا نَصِيبَنَا فِي الصُّنْدُوقِ فَقَالَ وَالله مَا لَكُمْ فِيهِ شَيْ‏ءٌ وَلَوْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِيهِ شَيْ‏ءٌ مَا دَفَعَهُ إِلَيَّ وَكَانَ فِي الصُّنْدُوقِ سِلاحُ رَسُولِ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) وَكُتُبُهُ.
