وَ بِهَذَا اَلْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي اَلْعِمَامَةِ لِلْمَيِّتِ قَالَ« حَنِّكْهُ».
And through this chain of narrators, from Muhammad ibn Ya‘qub, from ‘Ali ibn Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr, from some of our companions, from Abu ‘Abdullah عليه السلام:
Imam عليه السلام said regarding the turban (Imamah) for the deceased. Imam عليه السلام said: "Wrap it under his chin (Hannikhu)."
