و يقال للزيدية أ فيكذب رسول الله ص في قوله إن الأئمة اثنا عشر فإن قالوا إن رسول الله ص لم يقل هذا القول قيل لهم إن جاز لكم دفع هذا الخبر مع شهرته و استفاضته و تلقي طبقات الإمامية إياه بالقبول فما أنكرتم ممن يقول إنّ و يقال للزيدية أ فيكذب رسول الله ص في قوله إن الأئمة اثنا عشر فإن قالوا إن رسول الله ص لم يقل هذا القول قيل لهم إن جاز لكم دفع هذا الخبر مع شهرته و استفاضته و تلقي طبقات الإمامية إياه بالقبول فما أنكرتم ممن يقول إنّ قَوْلَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ. ليس من قول الرسول ع.
Narrated to us Muhammad bin Ibrahim bin Ishaq who said: Narrated to us Abdul Aziz bin Yahya al-Jaloodi from Husain bin Maaz from Qais bin Hafas from Yunus bin Arqam from Abu Sinan Shaibani from Zahhak bin Muzahim from Nizal bin Sabra from Amirul Momineen Ali ibn Abi Talib 
in a tradition in which there is description of Dajjal. At the end of this tradition the Imam says: “Do not ask me about the conditions following this. This is a covenant that I have made with my dearest one (the Prophet) that I would not inform about this to anyone except my descendants.” Nizaal bin Sabra says that I asked Sa’sa bin Sauhan what Amirul Momineen meant by this? He replied, ‘O ibn Sabra, he is the same behind whom Prophet Isa would pray. He shall be the twelfth descendant and he would be the ninth descendant of Husain bin Ali . He would be the one for whom the Sun would rise from the west and he shall reappear between the Rukn and Maqaam. Then he would purify the earth and establish the scales of justice. Then no one would be able to oppress another. Then Amirul Momineen said that the dearest one of Amirul Momineen , the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had taken an oath from him that he must not inform anyone about the events after this except his purified descendants.
[Al-Saduq says:] And Zaidiyyah shall be asked: Can you deny that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said that the Imams after him would be twelve? If they say that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not make such a statement they would be asked: If it is possible for you to reject this report inspite of the fact that it is well-known, beneficial and it is accepted by Imamiyah sect, it is just as if someone were to allege that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sayings: ‘Min kuntu mawla…’ is not of his real sayings. ’
