Then he will unleash such killings that it will be alleged that he is doing Israaf (excess) in killing.”[^3] His Eminence also said: “The one killed is Husain (as) and his Wali is Qaim (aj). And the Israaf in that killing is: He would kill other than his killer.

(that is Mansoor) because he will not leave the world till by the medium of a man from the progeny of the Messenger of Allah (S) he gets help and victory such that he would fill the earth with justice and equity just as it would have been fraught with injustice and oppression.” In another traditional report in Kafi from His Eminence, Abu Abdillah Sadiq (as) with reference to the same verse it is mentioned: “It was revealed about Husain (as).

If people are killed due to him it is not Israaf (excess).”[^4] In the book Ilalush Sharai it is narrated from His Eminence, Baqir (as) that he said: “When my grandfather, Husain (as) was martyred, the angels raised up their lamentations of protest in the court of Allah, the Mighty and the Sublime, and they said: “O God, owner of discretion!

Will you ignore the one who has killed Your chosen one, son of Your chosen one and the best of creations?” The Almighty Allah revealed to them: “O My angels, rest assured.

Rest assured!” Then He removed a curtain behind which were visible, Muhammad and the twelve successors. He held the hand of the Qaim from among them and said: O My angels and O My heavens and O My earth, I will help them. He repeated it thrice.”[^6] In Ghayat al-Maraam the great traditionist, Sayyid Hashim Bahrani has quoted a tradition from the Ahle Sunnat channels in the narration of Me’raaj (ascension) as follows: “The Almighty Allah said: O Muhammad!
