Like him, he began writing a huge encyclopedia, vowing to himself that he would not stop until he completed it or his heart stopped beating - as mentioned in the manuscript that we titled: (Al-Mufassal fi Taarikh al-Arab fi al-Islam), from which we excerpted this piece of manuscript in which he dealt with the succession of Imam Hassan (peace be upon him).
