حدثنا محمد بن الحسن بن أحمد بن الوليد - رضي الله عنه - قال: حدثنا محمد بن الحسن الصفار، عن إبراهيم بن هاشم، عن إسماعيل بن مرار، عن يونس بن عبد الرحمن، عن أبي الحسن عليه السلام قال:
سألته فقلت: جعلت فداكما كان تابوت موسى؟ وكم كان سعته؟ قال ثلاث أذرع في ذراعين، قلت: ما كان فيه؟ قال: عصى موسى والسكينة، قلت: وما السكينة. قال: روح الله يتكلم، كانوا إذا اختلفوا في شئ كلمهم وأخبرهم ببيان ما يريدون.
2. We were told by Muhammed bin Hasan bin Ahmad bin Waleed, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin Hasan al-Saffar, from Ibrahim bin Hashim, from Isma’eel bin Marrar, from Yunus bin Abdul-Rahman, from Abu’l-Hasan, peace be upon him, that he said:
I asked him and said: May I be sacrificed for you, what was the coffin of Musa? And how much was its width? He said: Three upper arms by two upper arms. I said: What was in it? He said: The staff of Musa and the tranquility. I said: And what is the tranquility? He said: The Spirit of Allah that speaks. If they were to dispute in something, it would speak to them and inform them by clarifying what they seek (to solve).
