Chapter on the Additions

Ali ibn al-Husayn from Sa’ad from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Abi Nasr from al-Husayn ibn Musa from Ja’far ibn Isa who said: Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, arrived in Mecca and asked me about Abdillah ibn A'yan, so I said: “He has died.” Imam عليه السلام said: “He has died?” I replied: “Yes.” Imam عليه السلام said: “Then let us go to his grave so that we may pray over him.” I said: “Yes.” Imam عليه السلام said: “No, but rather we will pray over him here.” Then Imam عليه السلام raised his hands, supplicating, and exerted himself in supplication and asked for mercy upon him (Abdillah ibn A'yan).
