7. Al-Husayn ibn Ahmad ibn Idris said: My father said: Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn `Isa said, on the authority of `Abd al-Rahman ibn Abu Najran, on the al-Mufaddal ibn Salih, on the authority of Jabir ibn Yazid al-Jufi that Abu Ja`far Muhammad ibn `Ali al-baqir said: Verily, Musa son of `Imran said: “O my Lord! I am pleased with what You have decreed regarding taking the souls of the elderly, and leaving the souls of the young.” Allah, the Mighty and High, replied, “O Musa! Are you not pleased with Me for being their Sustainer and Provider [kafil]?” Musa replied, “Of course, O Lord. You are the best Custodian, and the Best Provider.”
