8. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Hassan from certain individuals of our people from ‘Abbad ibn Ya’qub al-Rawijni from Sa’id ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman who has said the following: “I was at Yanbu’ with Musa ibn ‘Abd Allah. My supplies for my expenses were exhausted during certain journeys. A certain person of the children of al-Husayn asked me, ‘Whose assistence do you hope will help out overcome your difficult conditions?’ I said, ‘Musa ibn ‘Abd Allah will provide for my expenses.’ He then said, ‘He, therefore, will not provide you any help, and you will not succeed in your quest.’ I then asked, ‘Why it will be as such?’ He said, ‘It is because I have found in certain books of my ancestors that Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, has said, “. . . He mentioned a Hadith similar to the previous Hadith.’’” I then said, ‘O descendent of the Messenger of Allah, dictate it to me.’ He dictated it to me and I said, ‘I swear by Allah that I will not ask him (Musa ibn ‘Abd Allah) to help me.’”
