1 - حَدَّثَنا أَبي رَضِىَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قالَ: حَدَّثَني الحَسَنُ بْنُ عَبْدِاللَّه بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى، عَنْ أَبيهِ، عَنْ الحَسَن بْنِ مُوسَى الخَشَّاب، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الأَصْبَغِ، عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ الحَسَن المِيْثَمي - وَكانَ واقِفِيّاً - قالَ
مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْــمَاعِيل بْنِ الفَضْلِ الهاشِــمي، قالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبي الحَسَن مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرعَلَيْهِمَا السَّلاَمُ وَقَدْ اشْتَكى شَكاةً شَدِيدَةً، فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: إِنْ كانَ ما أَسْأَلُ اللَّه أَن لا يُرْيَناهُ فَإَلى مَنْ ؟ قالَ: إِلى عَلِيٍّ اِبْنِي، وَكِتابُهُ كِتابي، وَهُوَ وَصِيِّي وَخَلِيفَتِي مِنْ بَعْدي.
