مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ عِدَّةٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُذَافِرٍ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ مَعَ أَبِي عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فَسَأَلَهُ أَبِي عَنْ تَسْبِيحِ فَاطِمَةَ عَلَيْهَا اَلسَّلاَمُ فَقَالَ« اَللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ» حَتَّى أَ حْصَى أَرْبَعاً وَ ثَلاَثِينَ مَرَّةً ثُمَّ قَالَ« اَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ» حَتَّى بَلَغَ سَبْعاً وَ سِتِّينَ ثُمَّ قَالَ« سُبْحَانَ اَللَّهِ» حَتَّى بَلَغَ مِائَةً يُحْصِيهَا بِيَدِهِ جُمْلَةً وَاحِدَةً
Muhammad ibn Ya‘qub from a group of our companions from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ‘Amr ibn Uthman from Muhammad ibn ‘Udhafir, who said:
I entered with my father upon Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, and my father asked Him عليه السلام about the Tasbih of Fatimah صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم, peace be upon her. Imam عليه السلام said: ‘Allahu Akbar’ - Until He عليه السلام counted thirty-four times. Then Imam عليه السلام said: ‘Alhamdulillah’ - Until He عليه السلام reached sixty-eight. Then Imam عليه السلام said: ‘Subhanallah’ - Until He عليه السلام completed one hundred. He عليه السلام would count them with his hand all together as one sequence.”
