وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ اَلْقَاسَانِيِّ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ حَفْصٍ اَلْمَرْوَزِيِّ قَالَ: كَتَبْتُ إِلَى أَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فِي سَجْدَةِ اَلشُّكْرِ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيَّ« مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ شُكْراً شُكْراً وَ إِنْ شِئْتَ عَفْواً عَفْواً»
And from him, from Ali ibn Ibrahim, from Ali ibn Muhammad al-Qasani, from Sulayman ibn Hafs al-Marwazi, who said: I wrote to Abu al-Hasan عليه السلام, peace be upon him, regarding the prostration of gratitude He عليه السلام wrote back to me: “One hundred times: ‘Shukran, shukran (Thanks, thanks)’, and if you wish: ‘Afwan, ‘afwan (Pardon, pardon).’
