English translationMuhammad Sarwar
8. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father who has said the following. “Once abu Ali ibn Hassa’n spoke to abu Ja‘far (a.s.) saying, “My mater, people refuse to accept your Imamat (Leadership with Divine Authority) because of you very young age.” He said, “Why do they not refuse to accept the words of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most gracious. Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most gracious, has said to His prophet, “ (Muhammad), say, “This is my way. I and all my followers invite you to God with proper understanding.. .” (12:108) By Allah, only Ali (a.s.) followed him at that time and he was only nine years old. I also am nine years old.
