was not an extraordinary eventوفي الناس من يستر أمر ولده خوفا من أهله أن يقتلوه طمعا في ميراثه.قد جرت العادات بذلك فلا ينبغي أن يتعجب من مثله في صاحب الزمان عليه السلام. وقد شاهدنا من هذا الجنس كثيرا وسمعنا منه غير قليل فلا نطول بذكره لأنه معلوم بالعادات. وكم وجدنا من ثبت نسبه بعد موت أبيه بدهر طويل ولم يكن أحد يعرفه إذا شهد بنسبة رجلان مسلمان ويكون الأب أشهدهما على نفسه سترا عن أهله وخوفا من زوجته وأهله فوصى به فشهدا بعد موته أو شهدا بعقده على امرأة عقدا صحيحا فجاءت بولد يمكن أن يكون منه فوجب بحكم الشرع إلحاقه به. والخبر بولادة ابن الحسن عليه السلام وارد من جهات أكثر مما يثبت به الأنساب في الشرع. ونحن نذكر طرفا من ذلك فيما بعد إن شاء الله تعالى.[b]
Some people hide their progeny due to their family, fearing that they will kill them in greed for inheritance. These events are not uncommon and they happen often. Therefore, one must not evince wonder in the like of it in the Master of the Age. We have witnessed many events like this and have heard much about them, therefore, we will not prolong the discourse with more examples, because it is clear in the practices of the society. There are many people we have found whose lineage was clarified a long time after their fathers’ death. No one knew such a person’s lineage until two Muslims testify that his father had confided in them in secrecy due to his fear from his wife and his family; so they testify afterwards that they can be related to a particular man or woman.
