24-11 Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-Haysam al-Ajali - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Abul-Ab’bas Ahmad ibn Yahya ibn Zakariya al-Qat’tan quoted Bakr ibn Abdullah ibn Habib, on the authority of Tamim ibn Buhlool, on the authority of Abu Muawiyah, on the authority of Suleiman ibn Mihran, on the authority of Ja’far ibn Muhammad as-Sadiq (as), on the authority of his father (ra), on the authority of his grandfather (MGB), on the authority of his father Al-Hussein ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) that he had heard God’s Prophet (sw) say, “
Indeed the nation of Moses (as) divided up into seventy-one sects after him. One sect shall be saved and the other seventy sects will go to Hell. The nation of Jesus (as) divided up into seventy-two sects after him. One sect shall be saved and the other seventy-one sects will go to Hell. My nation will be divided up into seventy-three sects after me. One sect will be saved and the other seventy-two sects will go to Hell.”
24-11 حدثنا أحمد بن محمد بن الهيثم العجلي رضي الله عنه قال: حدثنا أبوالعباس أحمد بن يحيى بن زكريا القطان قال: حدثنا بكر بن عبد الله بن حبيب قال: حدثنا تميم بن بهلول قال: حدثنا أبومعاوية، عن سليمان بن مهران، عن جعفر بن محمد، عن أبيه عن جده، عن أبيه الحسين بن علي بن أبي طالب عليهم السلام قال
سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله يقول:إن امة موسى افترقت بعده على إحدى وسبعين فرقة، فرقة منها ناجية وسبعون في النار، وافترقت امة عيسى عليه السلام بعده على اثنتين وسبعين فرقة، فرقة منها ناجية وإحدى وسبعون في النار، وإن امتي ستفرق بعدي على ثلاث وسبعين فرقة، فرقة منها ناجية واثنتان وسبعون في النار
