7ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنِ ابْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ حُجْرٍ عَنْ حُمْرَانَ عَنْ ابي جعفر (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَمَّا يَتَحَدَّثُ النَّاسُ أَنَّهُ دُفِعَتْ إِلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ صَحِيفَةٌ مَخْتُومَةٌ فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) لَمَّا قُبِضَ وَرِثَ علي (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) عِلْمَهُ وَسِلاحَهُ وَمَا هُنَاكَ ثُمَّ صَارَ إِلَى الْحَسَنِ ثُمَّ صَارَ إِلَى الْحُسَيْنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فَلَمَّا خَشِينَا أَنْ نُغْشَى اسْتَوْدَعَهَا أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ ثُمَّ قَبَضَهَا بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ عَلِيُّ بن الحسين (عَلَيْهما السَّلام) قَالَ فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ ثُمَّ صَارَ إِلَى أَبِيكَ ثُمَّ انْتَهَى إِلَيْكَ وَصَارَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ إِلَيْكَ قَالَ نَعَمْ.
7. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from Safwan ibn Yahya from ibn Muskan from Hujr from Humran who has said the following: "I asked Abu Ja‘far عليه السلام about the truth in the matter which people relate that a sealed page (or pages) was given to Umm Salama. The Imam عليه السلام then said, 'When the Messenger of Allah passed away, Ali عليه السلام inherited his (Holy Prophet’s) arms and whatever was therein, then it was transferred to Imam al-Hassan then to Imam al-Husayn عليه السلام. However, we became anxious about losing them, so we then decided to leave them in trust of Umm Salama. Afterwards Imam Ali ibn al-Husayn عليه السلام took custody of the arms.' I then said, 'Yes, then it is true that it was transferred to your father and then they ended up to you!'"
