Al-Husain bin Sa'eed in 'Book of Zohad' narrates from Hammad bin Isa, from Al-Husain bin Mukhtar, from Abi Baseer from Abi Abdillah (as),

Narrated by Muhammad bin Yahya, from Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Isa, from Ibn Fazzal, from Younus bin Yaqob, from Saeed bin Yasir:

That I was there when one of the sons of Ibn Saaboor, who was a pious and great man, was ill, and i think his name was Zakariya bin Saabor, so at the time of his death, he extended his hand, and said, "You have enlightened my hand O Ali!"

The Narrator said, when I met Abi Abdillah (as) and Muhammad bin Muslim was also with him.

He (narrator) said: when I stood up from him, I believe mohammad bin muslim had told him about that man. So his Messenger came and I went with him to him.

Imam (as) said, "Tell me about this man with whom you were at time of his death, what did you hear? He said: I said he extended his arm and said that you have enlightened my hand O Ali.

So Abi Abdillah (as) said: By God! He saw Him, By God! He saw Him , By God! He saw Him.
