1400. hadíth

وَ رَوَى عَلِيُّ بْنُ اَلْحَكَمِ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ أَبِي اَلْحَلاَّلِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «مَا مِنْ نَبِيٍّ وَ لاَ وَصِيٍّ يَبْقَى فِي اَلْأَرْضِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ثَلاَثَةِ أَيَّامٍ حَتَّى يُرْفَعَ بِرُوحِهِ وَ عَظْمِهِ وَ لَحْمِهِ إِلَى اَلسَّمَاءِ وَ إِنَّمَا يُؤْتَى مَوَاضِعُ آثَارِهِمْ وَ يُبَلِّغُونَهُمْ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ اَلسَّلاَمَ وَ يُسْمِعُونَهُمْ فِي مَوَاضِعِ آثَارِهِمْ مِنْ قَرِيبٍ ».

Ali ibn al-Hakam narrated from Ziyad ibn Abi al-Hilal, from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (a.s) who said: "No prophet or successor remains on earth for more than three days before their soul, bones, and flesh are raised to the heavens. However, people visit the places associated with their traces, and salutations reach them from afar and are conveyed to them. From near, they hear the salutations in the places associated with their traces."
