قُلْتُ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ- النَّصْرَانِيُّ يَمُوتُ وَ لَهُ ابْنٌ مُسْلِمٌ أَ يَرِثُهُ قَالَ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَمْ يَزِدْهُ بِالْإِسْلَامِ إِلَّا عِزّاً فَنَحْنُ نَرِثُهُمْ وَ لَا يَرِثُونَّا.

4. It is narrated from the narrator of the previous Hadith from Musa ibn Bakr from ‘Abd Allah ibn ‘A’yan who has narrated the following: “I once said to abu Ja’far, Alayhi al-Salam, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, if a Christian man dies and has a Muslim son, can he inherit from him?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, because Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, through al-Islam has increased his honor, so we inherit from them but they cannot inherit from us.’”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
