7. Muḥammad ibn Ja’far Al-Qurashi Al-Razzāz narrated to me from Muḥammad ibn Ḥusain (ibn Abil Khaťťāb), from ‘Ali ibn Asbāť, from Ismā’īl ibn Abī Ziyād, from some of his scholars, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq عليه السلام) was asked, “Who stopped Fir’awn from killing Mūsā عليه السلام which is referred to in this verse, ‘Fir’awn said, ‘Let me kill Mūsā’ (40:26)?” Imam عليه السلام replied, “(Fir’awn could not kill Mūsā عليه السلام) because he was conceived legitimately. Verily the prophets and the Decisive Proofs are only killed by those who are conceived illegitimately and by the children of adulteresses.” The above Ḥadīth has also been narrated to me through the following chain: My father and all of my scholars, from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh ibn Abī Khalaf, from Muḥammad ibn Ḥusain, from ‘Ali ibn Asbāť, from Ismā’īl ibn Abī Ziyād, from some of his scholars, from Abī ‘Abdillāh عليه السلام. My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Ibrāhīm ibn Hāshim, from Ibn Abī ‘Umayr, from some of his companions, from Ibn Muskān, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq عليه السلام) said: The killer of Ḥusain ibn ‘Ali عليه السلام was conceived illegitimately.
