Evidence of the Imamate of Imam Musa Kadhim عليه السلام and refutation of Waqifiya

61- قال: وروى علي بن معاذ قال: قلت لصفوان بن يحيى: بأي شي‏ء قطعت على علي؟قال: صليت ودعوت الله واستخرت عليه وقطعت عليه.
H 61 - Ali bin Maaz narrated: I asked Safwan bin Yahya: Through which reasoning have you adopted faith in the Imamate of Imam Musa Kadhim عليه السلام? He replied: I prayed the ritual prayer and after that sought counsel (Istikhara) from Almighty Allah and the result was that I got certainty about it.
