عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ خَرَجَ إِلَيْنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) وَ هُوَ مُغْضَبٌ فَقَالَ إِنِّي خَرَجْتُ آنِفاً فِي حَاجَةٍ فَتَعَرَّضَ لِي بَعْضُ سُودَانِ الْمَدِينَةِ فَهَتَفَ بِي لَبَّيْكَ يَا جَعْفَرَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ لَبَّيْكَ فَرَجَعْتُ عَوْدِي عَلَى بَدْئِي إِلَى مَنْزِلِي خَائِفاً ذَعِراً مِمَّا قَالَ حَتَّى سَجَدْتُ فِي مَسْجِدِي لِرَبِّي وَ عَفَّرْتُ لَهُ وَجْهِي وَ ذَلَّلْتُ لَهُ نَفْسِي وَ بَرِئْتُ إِلَيْهِ مِمَّا هَتَفَ بِي وَ لَوْ أَنَّ عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ عَدَا مَا قَالَ اللَّهُ فِيهِ إِذاً لَصَمَّ صَمّاً لَا يَسْمَعُ بَعْدَهُ أَبَداً وَ عَمِيَ عَمًى لَا يُبْصِرُ بَعْدَهُ أَبَداً وَ خَرِسَ خَرْساً لَا يَتَكَلَّمُ بَعْدَهُ أَبَداً ثُمَّ قَالَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ أَبَا الْخَطَّابِ وَ قَتَلَهُ بِالْحَدِيدِ.
286. A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Maalik bin Atiyya, who has narrated the following: Some of the companions of Abu Abdullah (asws) has reported that Abu Abdullah (asws) came out to us and he (asws) was ‘مُغْضَبٌ’ angry. He (asws) said: ‘I (asws) went out for some need, so some black people of Al-Medina presented themselves to me (asws). They shouted at me (asws) as: ‘لَبَّيْكَ يَا جَعْفَرَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ لَبَّيْكَ’ ‘Here I am (Labbaik) O Ja’far Bin Muhammad (asws), here I am (Labbaik)!’ So I (asws) returned back to my (asws) house, in a fearful panic from what they had said, until I (asws) prostrated to my (asws) Lord (azwj) and rubbed my (asws) face to Him (azwj), and humbled myself (asws) to Him (azwj), and distanced myself (asws) (from them) to Him (azwj) from what they had shouted to me (asws). And if Isa (as) Ibn Maryam (as) had added anything to what Allah (azwj) had Said regarding him (as), then he (as) would have become deaf and would not have been able to hear anything after that ever, and become blinded and would not have been able to visualise anything after that ever, and would have become dumb and would not have been able to speak anything after that ever’. Then he (asws) said: ‘May Allah (azwj) Curse Abu Al-Khattaab and kill him with the iron’.
