50-1 My father and Muhammad ibn Al-Hassan ibn Ahmad ibn al-Waleed - may God have Mercy upon them both - narrated that Sa’d ibn Abdullah quoted on the authority of Muhammad ibn Isa ibn Obayd, on the authority of Ali ibn al-Hakam, on the authority of Muhammad ibn al-Fudhayl, “In the year in which Harun got mad with the Barmakites and first ordered that Ja’far ibn Yahya be killed and Yahya ibn Khalid be imprisoned, and whatever else that happened to the Barmakites. Abul Hassan Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) was standing up on the Day of Arafat and he (a.s.) was praying and bowing his head. He (a.s.) was asked for the reason. The Imam (a.s.) said, “I was cursing the Barmakites before God the Highest for what they had done to my father (a.s.). God fulfilled my prayers today.” Then the Imam (a.s.) returned home. A short time later, Ja’far and (his father) Yahya (of the Barmakites) were faced with problems and the tables turned on them.

IsnādMon père et Muhammad ibn al-Hasan ibn Ahmad ibn al-Walid - qu'Allah leur fasse miséricorde - nous ont informés, ils ont dit: Sa'd ibn Abdullah nous a rapporté de Muhammad ibn 'Isa ibn 'Ubayd, il a dit: Ali ibn Lhakam nous a rapporté de Muhammad ibn al-Fudayl, il a dit: Lorsque Harun a réprimé la famille de Barmak, il a commencé par Ja'far ibn Yahya et a emprisonné Yahya ibn Khalid, et il est descendu sur les Barmakides. Abu al-Hasan - que la paix soit sur lui - se tenait debout à Arafat en prière, puis il a baissé la tête. On lui a demandé à ce sujet, il a dit: J'invoquais Allah le Très-Haut contre les Barmakides pour ce qu'ils ont fait à mon père, et Allah m'a répondu aujourd'hui à leur sujet. Quand il s'en est allé, il n'est pas resté longtemps avant que Ja'far et Yahya ne soient réprimés et que leur situation ne change.

50-2 Muhammad ibn Musa - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Abdullah ibn Ja’far al-Hemyari quoted on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa, on the authority of Al-Hassan ibn Ali al-Washsha’, on the authority of Mosafir (Abu Muslim - one of the companions of Imam Musa Al-Kadhim (a.s.)), “I was with Abil Hassan Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) in Mina. Yahya ibn Khalid and a group of the Barmakites passed by. Then Imam Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) said, ‘These poor fellows do not know what will happen to them this year.’ The Imam (a.s.) then added, ‘O! It is amazing that Harun and I are like these two (fingers)’ while he was putting two of his fingers side by side.” Mosafir added, “By God, I did not understand what this meant until he was buried at the side of Harun.”

IsnādMuhammad ibn Musa al-Mutawakkil a rapporté: Abdallah ibn Ja'far al-Himyari a rapporté d'Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa, de Al-Hassan ibn Ali al-Washsha', de Masafir, qui a dit: J'étais avec Al-Rida (que la paix soit sur lui) à Minâ, lorsque Yahya ibn Khalid est passé avec un groupe de la famille de Barmaq. Il a dit: "Pauvres gens, ils ne savent pas ce qui leur est permis cette année." Puis il a dit: "Regardez, je suis plus étonné de ceci qu'Harun l'était, et je suis comme ceci," en joignant ses deux doigts. Masafir a dit: "Par Allah, je n'ai pas compris le sens de ses paroles jusqu'à ce que nous l'ayons enterré avec lui."

Je n'ai pas compris le sens de ses paroles jusqu'à ce que nous l'ayons enterré avec lui.

(962 A.D.) that Ali ibn Muhammad ibn Qutayba quoted on the authority of Al-Fadhl ibn Shathan, on the authority of Safwan ibn Yahya, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Ya’fur al-Balkhi, on the authority of Musa ibn Mehran, “I heard Isa ibn Ja’far tell Harun (Ar-Rashid) when he was going from Raqqah to Mecca, ‘Do not forget what you have sworn to about the household of Abi Talib.You have sworn to chop off the head of anyone who claims to be a Divine Leader after Musa ibn Ja’far. Now this is his son Ali (Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.)) who is claiming to possess the Divine Leadership, and people are saying about him the same thing that they said about his father.’ Harun looked at him angrily and said, ‘So what? Do you think that I should kill them all?’ Musa ibn Mihran added, “Once I heard this I went and informed Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) about this. Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) said, ‘What do I have to do with them? By God, they do not have the power to do anything to me.’”

IsnādAbd al-Wahid ibn Muhammad ibn Abdus al-Nisaburi al-Attar ibn Nisabur nous a informés, l'année deux cent cinquante-trois, il a dit : Ali ibn Muhammad ibn Qutayba nous a informés, de Al-Fadl ibn Shadhan, de Safwan ibn Yahya, de Muhammad ibn Ya'fur al-Balkhi, de Musa ibn Mihran, il a dit : J'ai entendu Ja'far ibn Yahya, j'ai entendu Isa ibn Ja'far dire à Harun, lorsqu'il se dirigeait de Raqqa vers La Mecque : "Rappelle-toi ton serment que tu as prêté envers la famille d'Abi Talib, car tu as juré que si quelqu'un revendiquait l'Imamat après Musa, tu lui couperais la tête. Et voici Ali, son fils, qui revendique ce statut et on dit de lui ce qu'on disait de son père." Harun le regarda en colère et dit : "Veux-tu que je les tue tous ?" Musa dit : "Quand j'ai entendu cela, je me suis dirigé vers lui et je l'ai informé. Il a dit : "Qu'est-ce que j'ai à voir avec eux ? Par Allah, ils ne peuvent rien contre moi."

50-4 Ahmad ibn Ziyad al-Hamadani - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Ali ibn Ibrahim ibn Hashem quoted on the authority of Muhammad ibn Isa ibn Obayd, on the authority of Safwan ibn Yahya, “When Abul Hassan Musa ibn Ja’far (a.s.) passed away and Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) started to talk (about Divine Leadership), then we feared for his life and I told him, ‘You are expressing a great issue. We are afraid of this oppressor (Harun).’ Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) said, ‘He can struggle to do whatever he likes, but he cannot affect me at all.’” Safwan added, “A trustworthy person informed me that Yahya ibn Khalid (Al-Barmaki) told the oppressor (Harun), ‘This is his son Ali (Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.)) who has taken his position and is declaring that he himself is the (Divine) Leader.’ Harun replied, ‘What was the use of what we did to his father? Do you think that we should kill them all?’”The author added, “Indeed all the Barmakites were all enemies of the Members of the Household of God’s Prophet (S) and displayed their animosity.”Barmak who was in charge of an Idol-House called Nobahar in the city of Balkh. Barmak’s son was called Khalid. He started to work in the court of Abdul Malik ibn Marvan, and was able to attain a high position there. He accepted Islam during the era of Hisham ibn Abdul Malik. Later he became one of the heads of the army of Abu Muslim Khorasani. After the downfall of the Umayads, he went to Abul Abbas Saf’fah and became a minister. His son Yahya who was very intelligent was Harun Ar-Rashid’s teacher. It has been said that the majesty of the Abbasids was due to the wisdom of Yahya and his son Ja’far who was a minister in the court of Harun Ar-Rashid.

IsnādAhmad ibn Ziyad ibn Ja'far al-Hamdani nous a informés, qu'Allah soit satisfait de lui, a dit: Ali ibn Ibrahim ibn Hashim nous a informés, de la part de Muhammad ibn Isa ibn Ubayd, de la part de Safwan ibn Yahya, qui a dit: "Lorsque Abou al-Hassan Musa ibn Ja'far, que la paix soit sur lui, est décédé et que al-Rida, que la paix soit sur lui, a pris la parole, nous avons ressenti de l'appréhension à son égard. Je lui ai dit : "Tu as exposé une grande affaire et nous craignons pour toi de la part de ce tyran." Il m'a répondu : "Qu'il fasse de son mieux, il n'a aucun pouvoir sur moi." Safwan a dit: "Alors, la personne digne de confiance nous a informés que Yahya ibn Khalid a dit au tyran : "Ceci est Ali, son fils, qui s'est assis et a revendiqué l'autorité pour lui-même." Il a dit : "Ce que nous avons fait à son père ne nous suffit pas, tu veux nous tuer tous. Les Baramikah étaient hostiles envers la famille du Messager d'Allah, prière et salut d'Allah sur lui et sur sa famille, manifestant de l'animosité envers eux."
