15895 - Abu Zakariya and Abu Bakr both narrated to us, saying: Abu al-Abbas narrated to us, saying: Al-Rabi' narrated to us, saying: Al-Shafi'i narrated to us, saying: Ibn Uyainah narrated to us, from Muhammad ibn Ishaq, who said: I said to Abu Ja'far Muhammad ibn Ali: What was in the scroll that was in the possession of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny)?
