Al-Kāfi|Volume 4|Book 3|Chapter 123
3ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ أَبِي الْبِلادِ عَنْ عَبْدِ السَّلامِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ نُعَيْمٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) دَخَلْتُ طَوَافَ الْفَرِيضَةِ فَلَمْ يُفْتَحْ لِي شَيْءٌ مِنَ الدُّعَاءِ إِلاَّ الصَّلاةُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَسَعَيْتُ فَكَانَ كَذَلِكَ فَقَالَ مَا أُعْطِيَ أَحَدٌ مِمَّنْ سَأَلَ أَفْضَلَ مِمَّا أُعْطِيتَ.
3. Ahmad ibn Muhammad has narrated from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from Ibrahim ibn abu al-Bilad from ‘Abd al-Salam ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn Nu’aym who said: “I once said to Abu `Abdillah عليه السلام, 'I began my obligatory Tawaf but did not know any prayer to say except the prayers upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad. During Sa'y I also said that.' He (the Imam) said, 'No one among those who ask is given what you have been given.’”
