Tacit and Explicit Testimony as proof of abu al-Hassan Musa’s عليه السلام Divine Authority over the people after abu ‘Abdallah عليه السلام

1ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الله الْقَلاءِ عَنِ الْفَيْضِ بْنِ الْمُخْتَارِ قَالَ قُلْتُ لابِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) خُذْ بِيَدِي مِنَ النَّارِ مَنْ لَنَا بَعْدَكَ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ أَبُو إِبْرَاهِيمَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) وَهُوَ يَوْمَئِذٍ غُلامٌ فَقَالَ هَذَا صَاحِبُكُمْ فَتَمَسَّكْ بِهِ.
1. Ahmad ibn Mihran has narrated from Muhammad ibn Ali from ‘Abdallah al-Qalla’ from al-Fayd ibn al-Mukhtar who has said the following. “I said to abu ‘Abdallah عليه السلام, ‘Please, take my hand out of fire. Who is for us after you (leave this world)?” Then abu Ibrahim (Musa ibn Ja‘far عليه السلام came and he was a young boy in those days. The Imam عليه السلام said, “This is your companion hold fast to him.”
