And by this chain, from Anbasat, from Moalla Bin Khunays who said: ‘I was in the presence of Abu Abdullah (asws) when Muhammad Bin Abdullah came up and greeted, then went away. Abu Abdullah (asws) sympathised and tears flowed from his (asws) eyes. So I said to him (asws), ‘I saw you (asws) doing something what you never did for anyone before’. He (asws) said; ‘I (asws) sympathised for him because he will be established upon a command which is not for him.

I (asws) did not find him in the Book of Ali (asws) from the Caliphs of this community, nor from its kings’. صحيح - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (16/605)) يخرجه - Shaykh Baqir al-Behbudi (Sahih al-Kafi)
