men of piety, knowledge, jurisprudence, and religion.” He has also been regarded as reliable by:
al‐Shaykh al‐Mejjlisi, al‐Shaykh al‐Hur al‐‘Amili, and al‐Hasan b. Abi Shu‘ba in his Tuhafa al‐‘Uqul.
Concerning him al‐Kashi has narrated: [He came in to Abu al‐Hasan Musa, peace be on him, one
year before he was transferred to Iraq. With the Imam was his son al‐Rida, peace be on him. He,
peace be on him, turned to him, saying:]
‐Muhammed! ‐Here I am! ‐There will be a movement this year. The Imam bowed his head. Then
he raised his head, turned to Muhammed and said to him: ‐Allah causes the unjust to go astray,
and Allah does what He pleases. ‐What is that? May I be your ransom! ‐Whoever wrongs this son
of mine in his right, he indicated with his hand to his son al‐Rida, peace be on him, and denies his
Imamate after me is like him who wronged ‘Ali b. Abi Talib, peace be on him, and denied his
Imamate after (the Prophet) Muhammed, may Allah bless him and his family.

Muhammed understood that the Imam had announced his death before him, and that he would
meet his Lord was close at hand. So he wanted to understand some secrets none knew except the
Imam, saying: ‐By Allah, If Allah prolonged my lifetime, I would hand over to him his right and to
acknowledge his Imamate. I bear witness that he is the proof of Allah over His creatures after you,
the summoner to His religion. ‐Muhammed, Allah will prolong your lifetime, and you (must)
summon (the people) to his Imamate and to that of him who would take his place after him.
‐Who is that? ‐Muhammed, his son. ‐Consent and submission? ‐Yes. I have found in the page of
the Commander of the faithful, peace be on him, that you are clearer than the lightning at a dark
night. This narration is a proof of that Muhammed was among the remarkable believers and of
the righteous people. Other narrations have praised his merits, his being trustworthy, and his
nearness to Ahl al‐Bayt, peace be on them. These viewpoints have been mentioned by al‐Muhaqiq
al‐Mamaqani, may Allah have mercy on him, who has said: “Surely the strongest opinion is that
the man (Muhammed) is trustworthy; his beliefs are true; his narration is accepted. As for those
who have accused him of excessiveness, they are either mistaken about his inclination to
excessiveness firstly and his firmness when Saffwan talked with him or due to what I have already
heard from some pious people who said that he was among those who had the secrets of the
Imam, and that he narrated some of their secrets to which the excessive clung. So the companions
criticized him to get rid of that which is more corrupt, and which is that the excessive feel strength
through that which is corrupt. If he was really weak, a great group from among our great
companions would not narrate (traditions) on his authority.”[1]
