4. Muhammad b. Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from Musa ibn Sa‘dan from Abu al-Hassan al-’Asadi from Abu Basir from Abu Ja‘far (a.s.) who has said the following: “Amir al-Mu’mini (a.s.) once came out during the night after the ‘Isha’ prayer saying, ‘Ham hama, ham hama it is a dark night. The Imam (a.s.) has come out to you and he is wearing the shirt of Adam (a.s.) and he is wearing the ring of Solomon (a.s.) and holding the staff of Moses (a.s.).”

5. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from al-Husayn from Muhammad ibn Isma‘il al-Sarraj from Bishr ibn Ja‘far from Mufaddal ibn ‘Umar who has said that he heard Abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.) say the following. “Do you know what was the shirt of Joseph?” I said, “I do not know.” The Imam (a.s.) said, “When the fire was set for Abraham, Jibril brought him a dress from paradise and made him wear it. With that dress on him, nothing of the cold or heat would harm him. When Abraham was about to die, he placed it in a covering and hanged it to Isacc (Ishaq) who hanged Jacob (Ya‘qub). When Joseph was born it was hanged to him and he had it on his shoulder until the event of the things that happened to this shirt. When Joseph took it out of its covering in Egypt, Jacob (Ya’qub) felt its fragrance as he said, “I smell Joseph’s scent. I hope that you will not accuse me of senility” (12:94). It was the same shirt that sent from paradise.” I then said, “May Allah take my soul in service for your cause, to who did that shirt go thereafter?” The Imam (a.s.) said, “It went to its (people) owner.” Then he said, “Every prophet who inherited knowledge or other things, they all ended to the family of Muhammad (s.a.).”

1. A number of our people has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Mu’awiya ibn Wahab from Sa‘id al-Samman who has said the following: “I was in the presence of Abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.) when two people from the Zaydiyya sect came to him. They asked, 'Is there with you an Imam obedience to whom is obligatory?' The narrator has said that the Imam (a.s.) said, 'No, there no one as such.' They then said, 'Reliable people have informed us about you that you issue fatwas and that you affirm and speak of it. We can point out what their names are. They are very pious alert people. They are such that can not be rejected. The Imams (a.s.) became angry and said, 'I have not ordered them to say so.' When the two men notice anger from the face of The Imams (a.s.) they left.' The Imams (a.s.) then asked me, 'Do you know these two?' I said, 'Yes, I know them. They are from our Sooq (shopping center). They belong to the Zaydiyya sect and they think that the sword of the Holy Prophet (s.a.) is with ‘Abdallah ibn al-Hassan.' The Imams (a.s.) said, 'They have lied, may Allah condemn them. I swear by Allah, ‘Abdallah ibn al-Hassan has not seen it with his own eyes, not even one of his eyes has seen it. Even his father had seen it except if he might have seen it with Imam Ali ibn al-Husayn (a.s.). If they are truthful let them say what kind of mark does its hilt have and what is the mark on its blade? With me is the sword of the Messenger of Allah, with me is the flag of the Messenger, his coat of arms, his Lamam (pennon) and his helmet. If they are truthful let them say what kind of mark does the coat of arms of the Messenger of Allah has? With me is the flag of the Messenger of Allah, the victorious. With me is the Staff of Moses. With me is the ring of Solomon son of David. With me is tray on Moses used to offer offerings. With me is the name that whenever the Messenger of Allah would place it between the Muslims and pagans no arrow from the pagans would reach the Muslims. With me is the similar object that angels brought.” Perhaps The Imams (a.s.) has hinted to the following verse. ‘Their Prophet further told them, “As the evidence of his authority, he will bring to you the Ark which will be a comfort to you from your Lord and a legacy of the household of Moses and Aaron. It will be carried by the angels. This is the evidence for you if you have faith.’ (Quran 2:248) The case of the Arms with us is like the case of the Ark in the Israelites. Whichever family would have had the Ark at their door-front that family would receive prophet-hood. To whoever of us the Arms are transferred he receives Imamate (leadership with Divine authority). My father wore the coats of arms of the Messenger of Allah. It would reach the earth and leave marks. I wore it also and it reached the earth and sometimes it would not. When the one from us who, will rise to establish the authority of Allah on earth, will come it will fit him perfectly, if Allah would so will.'"
