\n Ali bin Ahmad Al-Bandaneeji narrated from Abu Obaydillah bin Musa Al-Alawi from Ali bin Al-Hasan from Isma\u2019eel bin Mihran from Al-Mufadhdhal bin Salih from Ma\u2019ath bin Katheer, who says: \n Abu Abd Allah Ja’far -asws (6 th Imam -asws ) bin Muhammad -asws had said: \n The Will had been revealed from the Heaven to the Prophet -saww . It was a sealed book. No other sealed book had been revealed to the Prophet -saww except the Will.

Gabriel -as said: O Muhammad -saww , this is your Will to your -saww family -asws among your -saww umma. The Prophet -saww said: \u201cO Gabriel -as , which of my -saww family -asws ?\u201d Gabriel -as said: \u201cThe one -asws , whom Allah -azwj has Chosen, and his -saww progeny -asws . He -asws is to inherit you -saww with the knowledge of Prophet-hood (as did) before (you -saww Prophet) Ibrahim -as .\u201d \n The Will had seals.

Ali -asws opened the first seal and went whereto (to the better world) he -asws had been ordered. Then Al-Hassan -asws opened the second seal and went whereto he had been ordered. Then Al-Husayn -asws opened the third seal and found in it: \u201cFight, kill and you -asws are to be killed. Set out with some people towards martyrdom. They will not be martyred except with you -asws .\u201d He -asws gave the will to Ali -asws bin Al-Husayn -asws and went.

Ali -asws bin Al-Husayn -asws opened the fourth seal and found in it: \u201cPonder long and be silent for knowledge is veiled.\u201d Then he -asws gave it to Muhammad -asws bin Ali -asws , who opened the fifth seal and found in it: \u201cInterpret the Book of Allah -azwj , confirm your father -asws \u2019s knowledge, bequeath knowledge to your -asws son -asws , instruct the umma and announce the truth in fright and safety and do not fear except Allah!\u201d He -asws did and gave the Will to the next one -asws .\u201d Ma\u2019ath said: \u201cIs it you -asws ?\u201d \n Imam Al-Sadiq -asws said: \u201cO Ma\u2019ath, you are not but to go and narrate this from me -asws .

Yes, it is me -asws .\u201d He -asws mentioned twelve names and then became silent.
