2. We were told by Muhammed bin Ja’far bin Hasan al-Baghdadi, that he said: We were told by Abdullah bin Muhammed bin Abdul-Aziz, dictating, that he said: We were told by Bishr bin Walid, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin Talha, from A’mash, from ‘Atiya bin Sa’eed, from Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri, that the Prophet, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family, said: Indeed, I am about to be called, to which I will respond. Hence, I am leaving among you the Two Weighty Things: The Book of Allah, Exalted and Glorious is He; and my Family. The Book of Allah is a Rope extended between Heaven and earth, and my Family, my Household. Indeed, the All-Kind, the All-Acquainted, informed me that they are never to be separated until they meet me at the basin. Thus, look into by what you will succeed me.
