In the Name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
The Last Will
Abu Basir narrates:
After the martyrdom of Imam Sadiq (PBUH) I went to his house to pay my condolences to his wife Hamidah. Upon seeing me, she began to weep and I wept as well.
Then she said Abu Basir! If you were here on the last moments of Imam Sadiq’s (PBUH) life, you would have witnessed something unordinary.
“What is that?” I asked.
She answered:
“It was in the last moments of the Imam’s life when he opened his blessed eyes and said:
“Gather all of my family and relatives now and bring them to me!” Thus, we gathered every one of the relatives until no-one was left. He turned to them and said,
“We will not intercede1 for those who belittle2 Salat3.”
