Hadith 30-28

حَدَّثَنا مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الحَسَن بْنِ أَحْمَدِ بْنِ الوَلِيد رَضِىَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قالَ: حَدَّثَنا مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الحَسَن الصَفَّارِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الحُسَيْنِ بْنِ أَبي الخَطَّاب وَأَحْمَدِ بْنِ مُحَمَّد، عَنْ أَبيهِ، عَنْ عَلِىِّ بْنِ أَسْباطٍ، وَالحَجَّالِ أَنَّهُما سَمِعا الرِّضا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ يَقُولُ: كَانَ الْعَابِدُ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لا يَتَعَبَّدُ حَتَّى يَصْمُتَ عَشْرَ سِنِينَ.

Muhammad ibn Al-Hassan ibn Ahmad ibn al-Waleed - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Muhammad ibn Al-Hassan al-Saffar quoted on the authority of Muhammad ibn Al-Husayn ibn Abil Khattab and Ahmad ibn Muhammad, on the authority of his father, on the authority of Ali ibn Asbat and al-Hajjal that they heard Al-Ridha’ (a.s.) say, “One of the worshippers from the Children of Israel only worshipped after remaining silent for ten years.”
