333- وأخبرني جماعة، عن أبي جعفر محمد بن علي بن الحسين رضي الله عنه قال:حدثني محمد بن علي بن الاسود القمي أن أبا جعفر العمري قدس سره حفر لنفسه قبرا وسواه بالساج، فسألته عن ذلك فقال: للناس أسباب. و سألته عن ذلك، فقال:
قد أمرت أن أجمع أمري. فمات بعد ذلك بشهرين رضي الله عنه وأرضاه.
H 333 - Another group of scholars from Abu Ja’far Muhammad Ibn Ali Ibn Husain narrated to me on the authority of Muhammad Ibn Ali Ibn Aswad Qummi that Abu Ja’far Amari dug a tomb for himself and leveled it with a tablet. I inquired about it. He mentioned some reasons to the people. Then I asked him about it. He said:
“I have been ordered to gather my affairs.” He died two months after that. May Allah be pleased with him and may He please him.
