Ah,” said Amirul Momineen (as), pointing with his hand to his chest, expressing his anxiety to see to see the Mahdi.”[^2] I’zzat – Respect Of The Saints By The Reappearance Of His Eminence In Dua -e-Nudbah we read: “Where is the one who honors the saints and disgraces the enemies?” In Kamaluddin it is narrated from His Eminence, Abu Ja’far Baqir (as) that he said: “As if I can see the companions of the Qaim (aj) that have filled up the earth from the east to the west.
Everything, even the wild beasts and the jungle birds will obey them, and everything will seek his satisfaction, so much so that a piece of land will pride itself over others and say: Today a companion of the Imam passed over me.”[^3] A’dhaab – Punishment Of The Enemies It is narrated from His Eminence, Abu Abdillah Sadiq (as) that he said regarding the following verse: وَلَئِنْ أَخَّرْنَا عَنْهُمُ الْعَذَابَ إِلَىٰ أُمَّةٍ مَعْدُودَةٍ لَيَقُولُنَّ مَا يَحْبِسُهُ “And if We hold back from them the punishment until a stated period of time…” (Qur’an, Surah Hud 11:8) “Punishment is the reappearance of the Qaim and the medium nation are the people of Badr and companions of the Holy Imam (as).” Ali bin Ibrahim says under the explanation of the verse: سَأَلَ سَائِلٌ بِعَذَابٍ وَاقِعٍ “One demanding, demanded the chastisement which must befall.” (Qur’an, Surah Maarij 70:1) That: When His Eminence, Abu Ja’far Baqir (as) was asked about the interpretation of the above verse he said: It is a fire that would rise from the west and rulership will be mobilized behind it till it reaches the house of Saad bin Hamaam near his Masjid.
Then not a single house will remain for Bani Umayyah but that the fire will burn it down with its inmates and a house in which a killer of Aale Muhammad (an oppressor of Aale Muhammad) will not be spared but that it would be burnt down by that fire. And that is Mahdi (aj).[^4] I say: Traditions supporting the above shall come under the topic of ‘Q’.
