1ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ زَعْلانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ أَبِي مَنْصُورٍ قَالَ قَالَ لِي جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ (عَلَيْهِما السَّلاَم) يَا عِيسَى إِنِّي أُحِبُّ أَنْ يَرَاكَ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فِيمَا بَيْنَ الْحَجِّ إِلَى الْحَجِّ وَأَنْتَ تَتَهَيَّأُ لِلْحَجِّ.
1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn al-Hassan Za’lan from ‘Abd Allah ibn al- Mughirah from Hammad ibn Talhah from ‘Isa ibn abu Mansur who has said the following: “Abu Ja‘far عليه السلام, once said to me , ‘O ‘Isa, I love that Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, see you in one al-Hajj to another al-Hajj and you are getting ready for another al-Hajj.’”
