Abu Basir narrates:

After the martyrdom of Imam Sadiq (PBUH) I went to his house to pay my condolences to his wife Hamidah. Upon seeing me, she began to weep and I wept as well. 

Then she said Abu Basir! If you were here on the last moments of Imam Sadiq’s (PBUH) life, you would have witnessed something unordinary.

“What is that?” I asked. 

She answered:

“It was in the last moments of the Imam’s life when he opened his blessed eyes and said:

“Gather all of my family and relatives now and bring them to me!”  Thus, we gathered every one of the relatives until no-one was left.  He turned to them and said,

“We will not intercede[1] for those who belittle[2] Salat[3].”
