أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِی عُمَیْرٍ عَمَّنْ أَخْبَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: وَجَدْتُ فِی بَعْضِ الْکُتُبِ مَنْ صَلَّی عَلَی مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ کَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ مِائَهَ حَسَنَهٍ وَ مَنْ قَالَ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَی مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَهْلِ بَیْتِهِ کَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ أَلْفَ حَسَنَهٍ.
1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah from Muhammad b. Abi ’Umayr from the one that narrated to him from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) who said: Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) says that he has read in a heavenly scripture, “Allah will write a thousand rewards for one who sends salutations on Muhammad (s.a.w.s.) and his progeny. For one who recites Allaahumma s’alli a’laa muh’ammadinw wa ahli baitih Allah will write a thousand rewards.”
