Read English translationMuhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn

7- Muhammad ibn al-Hasan, from Sahl ibn Ziyad, from Muhammad ibn 'Isa, from Safwan ibn Yahya, from Sabāh al-Azraq, said: I said to Abu Ja'far al-Baqir (as): "A man from the Mukhtariyyah met me and claimed that Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah is an Imam." Abu Ja'far (as) became angry and said: "Did you not tell him...? I said: 'No, by Allah, I did not know what to say.' He said: 'Did you not tell him that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his family) entrusted Ali, al-Hasan, and al-Husayn? When Ali (as) passed away, he entrusted al-Hasan and al-Husayn. If anyone tried to take that away from them, they would say: 'We are the trustees like you,' and he would not do that. Al-Hasan entrusted al-Husayn, and if anyone tried to take that away from him, he would say: 'I am a trustee like you from the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his family) and from my father,' and he would not do that. Allah, the Exalted, said: 'And those who are related by blood are more entitled to one another.' This applies to us and to our children."
