2ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ مُيَسِّرٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) عَنْ جَنَّةِ آدَمَ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) فَقَالَ جَنَّةٌ مِنْ جِنَانِ الدُّنْيَا تَطْلُعُ فِيهَا الشَّمْسُ وَالْقَمَرُ وَلَوْ كَانَتْ مِنْ جِنَانِ الآخِرَةِ مَا خَرَجَ مِنْهَا أَبَداً.

Published English translation

2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn abu Nasr from al-Husayn ibn Muyassir who has said the following: “I asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the garden of Adam (a.s.). He said, ‘It was a garden of the gardens of the world on which the sun and moon rise. Had it been of the gardens of the hereafter, he would have never been expelled there from.’”
