27ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَقِيلٍ عِيسَى بْنِ نَصْرٍ قَالَ كَتَبَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ زِيَادٍ الصَّيْمَرِيُّ يَسْأَلُ كَفَناً فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ
إِنَّكَ تَحْتَاجُ إِلَيْهِ فِي سَنَةِ ثَمَانِينَ فَمَاتَ فِي سَنَةِ ثَمَانِينَ وَبَعَثَ إِلَيْهِ بِالْكَفَنِ قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ بِأَيَّامٍ.
27. Ali ibn Muhammad has narrated from abu ‘Aqil ‘Isa ibn Nasr who has said the following.
“Ali ibn Ziyad al-Saynari wrote a letter to request for a shroud. He (al-Mahdi 
wrote back to him, “You will need it in the year eighty.” He died in the year eighty and the shroud was sent to him a few days before his death.”
