[22] مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ وَ غَيْرُهُ عَنْ سَهْلٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى وَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى وَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ جَمِيعاً عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ وَ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي الدَّيْلَمِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ أَوْصَى مُوسَى ( عليه السلام ) إِلَى يُوشَعَ بْنِ نُونٍ وَ أَوْصَى يُوشَعُ بْنُ نُونٍ إِلَى وَلَدِ هَارُونَ وَ لَمْ يُوصِ إِلَى وَلَدِهِ وَ لَا إِلَى وَلَدِ مُوسَى إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى لَهُ الْخِيَرَةُ يَخْتَارُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ مِمَّنْ يَشَاءُ Muhammad Bin Al Husayn and someone else, from Sahl, from Muhammad Bin Isa and Muhammad Bin Yahya and Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, altogether from Muhammad Bin Sinan, from Ismail Bin Jabir and Abdul Kareem Bin Amro, from Abdul Hameed Bin Abu Al Daylam, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah -asws having said: ‘Musa -as bequeathed to Yoshua -as Bin Noon -as , and Yoshua -as Bin Noon -as bequeathed to a son of Haroun -as and did not bequeath to his -as own son, nor to a son of Musa -as .
Allah -azwj the Exalted Gave him -as the choice that he -as can choose the one whom he -as so desires to, from the ones he -as so desires to.
وَ بَشَّرَ مُوسَى وَ يُوشَعُ بِالْمَسِيحِ ( عليه السلام ) فَلَمَّا أَنْ بَعَثَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ الْمَسِيحَ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ الْمَسِيحُ لَهُمْ إِنَّهُ سَوْفَ يَأْتِي مِنْ بَعْدِي نَبِيٌّ اسْمُهُ أَحْمَدُ مِنْ وُلْدِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ( عليه السلام ) يَجِيءُ بِتَصْدِيقِي وَ تَصْدِيقِكُمْ وَ عُذْرِي وَ عُذْرِكُمْ وَ جَرَتْ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ فِي الْحَوَارِيِّينَ فِي الْمُسْتَحْفَظِينَ وَ إِنَّمَا سَمَّاهُمُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى الْمُسْتَحْفَظِينَ لِأَنَّهُمُ اسْتُحْفِظُوا الِاسْمَ الْأَكْبَرَ وَ هُوَ الْكِتَابُ الَّذِي يُعْلَمُ بِهِ عِلْمُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ الَّذِي كَانَ مَعَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ ( صلوات الله عليهم ) And Musa -as and Yoshua -as gave glad tidings of the Messiah -as .
So when Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic Sent the Messiah -as , the Messiah -as said to them: ‘There would be soon coming a Prophet -saww after me -as whose name is Ahmad -saww , from the children of Ismail -as . He -saww would come ratifying me -as and ratifying you, and my -as justifications and your justifications’.
And there flowed from after him -as among the disciples, among the preservers, and rather Allah -azwj Named them as ‘preservers’ because they preserved the Great Name, and it is the ‘Book’ through which one can find out the knowledge of everything which was with the Prophets -as .
