The Merits of the Euphrates River, Drinking from Its Water, and Performing Ghusl in It

11. My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Ibrāhīm ibn Mahziyār, from his brother ‘Ali ibn Mahziyār, from Ibn Abī ‘Umayr, from Ḥusain ibn ‘Uthmān, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq عليه السلام) said: I do not foresee any (newborn baby) whose mouth is opened with water from the Euphrates River to be anything other than from among our Shia. The above Ḥadīth has also been narrated to me through the following chain: My father, from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Ibrāhīm ibn Mahziyār, from his brother ‘Ali ibn Mahziyār, from Muḥammad ibn Abī Ḥamzah, from someone whose name he mentioned, from Abī ‘Abdillāh عليه السلام.
