Al-Kafi 13106

Translation

A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ali Bin Mahziyar who said, ‘Abu Ja’far^asws wrote to Ja’far^asws and Musa^asws: ‘And with regards to what I^asws am ordering both of you^asws, from the (appointment of) witnessed with such and such, is a safety for you^asws in your^asws Hereafter, and the enforcement of what I^asws, your^asws father, am bequeathing with, and your^asws righteousness from you^asws to both of them^asws (parents), and cautioning that you^asws do not replace their^asws bequest, nor change it from its state, because they^asws both would have exited from that, may Allah^azwj be Pleased from them^asws, and that has come to be upon your^asws necks. And Allah^azwj Blessed and High has Said in His^azwj Book with regards to the bequest <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:2#h181"><a href="/books/quran:2#h181">[2:181]</a></a> So the one who alters it after he has heard it, the sin of it then is only upon the one who alters it; surely Allah is Hearing, Knowing</span>’.
