وَعَنْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ اَلْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ جَمِيعاً عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ اَلْحَجَّاجِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ عَارِفٍ فَاضِلٍ تُوُفِّيَ وَ تَرَكَ عَلَيْهِ دَيْناً قَدِ اُبْتُلِيَ بِهِ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ بِمُفْسِدٍ وَ لاَ مُسْرِفٍ وَ لاَ مَعْرُوفٍ بِالْمَسْأَلَةِ هَلْ يُقْضَى عَنْهُ مِنَ اَلزَّكَاةِ اَلْأَلْفُ وَ اَلْأَلْفَانِ قَالَ» نَعَمْ«.
And from him, from Muhammad ibn Ismail, from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan, and Muhammad ibn Yahya, from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn, all of them from Safwan ibn Yahya, from Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Hajjaj, who said:
I asked Abu al-Hasan عليه السلام, peace be upon him, about ‘a knowledgeable, virtuous man who died and left behind a debt upon him with which he had been afflicted, and he was not corrupt, nor extravagant, nor known for asking. May one thousand and two thousand be paid on his behalf from the zakat?’ Imam عليه السلام said: "Yes."
