Al-Husayn b. Ahmad b. Idris narrated to us. He said: Ahmad b. Muhammad b. `Isa narrated to us from `Abd al-Rahman b. Abi Najran from al-Mufaddal b. Salih from Jabir b. Yazid al-Ju`fi from Abi Ja`far Muhammad b. `Ali al-Baqir . He said:

Musa b. `Imran said: O Lord! I am pleased with what You have decided, but You cause adults to die and leave behind their young children. So, Allah said: O Musa! Are you not pleased with Me as their Sustainer and their Protector? He said: Of course, O Lord. You are the best Trustee and the best Protector.
