20ـ وَعَنْهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَسْبَاطٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) إِذَا أَخَذَ النَّاسُ مَنَازِلَهُمْ بِمِنًى نَادَى مُنَادٍ يَا مِنًى قَدْ جَاءَ أَهْلُكِ فَاتَّسِعِي فِي فِجَاجِكِ وَاتْرَعِي فِي مَثَابِكِ وَمُنَادٍ يُنَادِي لَوْ تَدْرُونَ بِمَنْ حَلَلْتُمْ لأَيْقَنْتُمْ بِالْخَلَفِ بَعْدَ الْمَغْفِرَةِ.
20. It is narrated from him (narrator of previous Hadith) from his father from Ali ibn Asbat from certain individuals of our people who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said, ‘When people take their places in Mina, an announcer announces, “O Mina, your people have come, so expand your open fields to fill up your ponds.” And another announcer announces, ‘Had you known who your host is, you would become certain of al- Khalaf (reward) after forgiveness.’”
