11. My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Abī ‘Abdillāh Muḥammad ibn Abī ‘Abdillāh Al-Rāzi Al-Jāmūrāni, from Ḥusain ibn Sayf ibn ‘Amīrah, from his father Sayf, from Abī Bakr Al-Ḥaďrami, who said
I asked Abā ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) or Abā Ja’far (Imam Bāqir (a.s.)), “What is the best place after Masjid Al-Ḥarām and the Mosque of the Prophet (s.a.a.w.)?” Imam (a.s.) replied: Kūfah. O Abā Bakr! Kūfah is the purified and the virtuous land. It contains the graves of the messengers, the prophets, and the truthful successors. It (also) contains the Mosque of Suhayl in which every prophet sent by Allāh has prayed. The Justice of Allāh (the Twelfth Imam (a.s.)) will (also) reappear from this city. The rising Imam (a.s.) and those who will lead after him will also live in it. It is indeed the abode of the prophets, the successors, and the righteous ones.
11 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الرَّازِيِّ الْجَامُورَانِيِّ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ سَيْفٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) أَوْ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (ع) قَالَ
قُلْتُ لَهُ أَيُّ بِقَاعِ الْأَرْضِ أَفْضَلُ بَعْدَ حَرَمِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ حَرَمِ رَسُولِهِ (ص) فَقَالَ الْكُوفَةُ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ هِيَ الزَّكِيَّةُ الطَّاهِرَةُ فِيهَا قُبُورُ النَّبِيِّينَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَ قُبُورُ غَيْرِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَ الْأَوْصِيَاءِ الصَّادِقِينَ وَ فِيهَا مَسْجِدُ سُهَيْلٍ الَّذِي لَمْ يَبْعَثِ اللَّهُ نَبِيّاً إِلَّا وَ قَدْ صَلَّى فِيهِ وَ مِنْهَا يَظْهَرُ عَدْلُ اللَّهِ وَ فِيهَا يَكُونُ قَائِمُهُ وَ الْقُوَّامُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ وَ هِيَ مَنَازِلُ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ الْأَوْصِيَاءِ وَ الصَّالِحِينَ
