Al-Kafi 13266

Translation

Al Husayn Bin Muhammad Al Ashary, from Moala Bin Muhammad, from Al Hassan Bin Ali Al Washa and Muhammad Bin Yahya, from and executor Ali Bin Al Sary who said, ‘I said to Abu Al-Hassan Musa^asws that Ali Bin Al-Sary died, so he bequeathed to me’. So he^asws said: ‘May Allah^azwj have Mercy upon him’. I said, ‘And (the responsibility of) his son Ja’far Bin Ali fell upon his mother. So he ordered me that I should take him out from the inheritance’. So he^asws said to me: ‘Take him out from the inheritance, and if what you said was true, so he would be hit by insanity’. He (the narrator) said, ‘So I returned, and he took me to Abu Yusuf, the judge. So he said to him, ‘May Allah^azwj Keep you well! I am Ja’far Bin Ali Bin Al-Sary, and this is the executor of my father, therefore order him to hand over to me my inheritance from my father’. So Abu Yusuf the Judge said to me, ‘What are you saying?’ So I said to him, ‘Yes, this is Ja’far Bin Ali Bin Al-Sary, and I am an executor of Ali Bin Al-Sary’. He said, ‘So hand over to him, his wealth’. So I said, ‘I want to speak with you’. He said, ‘So approach me’. So I approached where no one could hear my speech, so I said to him, ‘This one (his responsibility) has fallen upon the mother who gave birth for his father, so his father ordered me and bequeathed to me that I should take him out from the inheritance, and not let him inherit anything. So I went over to Musa^asws Bin Ja’far^asws at Al-Medina, so I informed him^asws and asked him, so he^asws ordered me that I should take him out from the inheritance, and not to let him inherit anything’. So he said, ‘(By) Allah^azwj, Abu Al-Hassan^asws ordered you?’ I said, ‘Yes’. So he made me swear an oath three times, then said to me, ‘Enforce what Abu Al-Hassan^asws ordered you with, so the (true) words are his^asws words’. The executor said, ‘So the insanity hit him after that. Abu Muhammad Al-Hassan Bin Ali Al-Washa said, ‘So I saw him after that, and the insanity had indeed hit him’.
