مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى وَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ جَمِيعاً عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عُمَارَةَ عَنْ نُعَيْمٍ الْقُضَاعِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عليه السلام) قَالَ أَصْبَحَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ (عليه السلام) فَرَأَى فِي لِحْيَتِهِ شَعْرَةً بَيْضَاءَ فَقَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ الَّذِي بَلَّغَنِي هَذَا الْمَبْلَغَ لَمْ أَعْصِ اللَّهَ طَرْفَةَ عَيْنٍ.
