1. We were told by Muhammed bin Umar, the Keeper, in the City of Peace, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin Qasim bin Zakariya, Abu Abdillah, and Hussain bin Ali al-Salouli, that they both said: We were told by Muhammed bin Hasan al-Salouli, that he said: We were told by Saleh bin Abi’l-Aswad, from Abu’l-Mudaffar al-Madeeni, from Salam al-Ju’fi, from Abu Ja’far al-Baqir, peace be upon him, from Abu Barda, from the Prophet, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family, that he said: Indeed, Allah, Exalted and Glorious is He, made a covenant to me with regards to Ali. I said: O Lord, clarify it to me. He said: Listen. I said: I have listened. He said: Indeed, Ali is the Banner of Guidance, the Imam of My Allies and the Light of those who obey Me, and he is the Word that I have bound upon the Godfearing; those who love him have loved Me, and those who obey him have obeyed Me.
Nous a informé Mohammad ibn Omar Al-Hafiz de la ville de la Paix, qui a dit: Nous a informé Mohammad ibn Al-Qasim ibn Zakariya, surnommé Abu Abdullah, et Al-Hussein ibn Ali As-Sululi, qui ont dit: Nous a informé Mohammad ibn Al-Hassan As-Sululi, qui a dit: Nous a informé Saleh ibn Abi Al-Aswad, de la part d'Abu Al-Muzaffar Al-Madani, de Salam Al-Ja'fari, de la part d'Abu Ja'far Al-Baqir (que la paix soit sur lui), de la part d'Abu Burdah, du Prophète (que la prière d'Allah et Son salut soient sur lui) qui a dit: "Certes, Allah, le Puissant et Majestueux, m'a fait un pacte concernant Ali."
