1856 – ʿAbd Allah narrated to us; ʿAli narrated to me; Sayyar narrated to us; Jaʿfar narrated to us; Kathir Abu al-Fadl narrated to us; al-Hasan said: ʿImran ibn Husayn stated, “Those who used to feed others have passed away, and only those who seek to be fed remain; those who used to remind (people of Allah) have passed away, and the forgetful are what remain.” Al-Hasan added, “By Allah, had ʿImran been alive today, he would have had much more—far more—to say about this.”
١٨٥٦ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنِي عَلِيٌّ، حَدَّثَنَا سَيَّارٌ، حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا كَثِيرٌ أَبُو الْفَضْلِ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ قَالَ: قَالَ عِمْرَانُ بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ: " ذَهَبَ الْمُطْعِمُونَ وَبَقِيَ الْمُسْتَطْعِمُونَ وَذَهَبَ الْمُذَكِّرُونَ وَبَقِيَ الْمُنْسُونَ قَالَ: يَقُولُ الْحَسَنُ: أَمَا وَاللَّهِ لَوْ كَانَ عِمْرَانُ حَيًّا لَكَانَ لَهَا أَقْوَلَ وَأَقْوَلَ "
