[[Ishaq b. Rahawayh]] says, “When [[Imam al-Rida (a)]] reached [[Nishabur]] on his journey to [[Khurasan]], after he decided to leave for [[Ma'mun]], the penmen gathered and said, “O son of the [[The Prophet (s)|Messenger of God (s)]], are you leaving our city without giving us a statement to benefit from?” Upon this request, the Imam (a) brought his head out of his wagon and said: “I heard my father [[Imam al-kazim(a)|Musa b. Ja'far (a)]] say that I heard my father [[Imam al-Sadiq (a)|Ja'far b. Muhammad (a)]] say that I heard my father [[Imam al-Baqir (a)|Muhammad b. 'Ali (a)]] say that I heard my father [[Imam al-sajjad (a)|'Ali b. al-Husayn (a)]] say that I heard my father [[Imam al-Husayn (a)|Husayn b. 'Ali (a)]] say that I heard my father Amir al-Mu'minin [['Ali (a)|'Ali b. Abi Talib (a)]] say that I heard [[The Prophet (s)|God's Messenger (s)]] say that I heard [[Gabriel]] say that I heard God say that 'the sentence There is no god but God is my stronghold, thus whomever enters my stronghold shall be safe from my punishment.'” As the Imam's (a) caravan began to move, he said aloud: “With its conditions, and I myself am one of those conditions.”
