60ـ أَحْمَدُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ عَنِ ابْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنْ مَالِكٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ قَالَ قُلْتُ لابِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) وَأُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ هذَا الْقُرْآنُ لانْذِرَكُمْ بِهِ وَمَنْ بَلَغَ قَالَ مَنْ بَلَغَ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِمَاماً مِنْ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ يُنْذِرُ بِالْقُرْآنِ كَمَا يُنْذِرُ بِهِ رَسُولُ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه )
