Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad, from Mu'alla ibn Muhammad, from Ja'far ibn Muhammad ibn 'Ubayd Allah, from Muhammad ibn 'Isa al-Qummi, from Muhammad ibn Sulayman, from 'Abdillah ibn Sinan, from Abu 'Abdillah عليه السلام, regarding the saying of Allah, "And We had taken a covenant from Adam before, with certain words" -referring to Muhammad, Ali, Fatima, Hasan, Husayn, and the Imams عليه السلام from their descendants- "But he [Adam] forgot." (20:115) This, by Allah, is how it was revealed to Muhammad صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم.
