عَنْهُ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنِ اَلْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:«« كٰانُوا قَلِيلاً مِنَ اَللَّيْلِ مٰا يَهْجَعُونَ»» قَالَ« كَانَ اَلْقَوْمُ يَنَامُونَ وَ لَكِنْ كُلَّمَا اِنْقَلَبَ أَحَدُهُمْ قَالَ اَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اَللَّهُ وَ اَللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ»
From him from Al-Hasan ibn Ali from Al-Abbas ibn Amir from Jabir from Abu Basir:
Abu Ja'far, peace be upon him, said regarding the verse: "They used to sleep but little of the night" (Surah Adh-Dhariyat 51:17) Imam عليه السلام said: "The people used to sleep, but whenever one of them turned over, he would say, 'Praise be to Allah سبحانه وتعالى, there is no god but Allah سبحانه وتعالى, and Allah سبحانه وتعالى is the Greatest.'"
