Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Kamaaluddin wa Tamaamun Ni’ma Vol. 2 Chapter 35: Statements of ar-Reza (a.s.) regarding the occurrence of Ghaibat 1 - Narrated to us Muhammad bin Hasan bin Ahmad bin Walid (r.a.): Narrated to us Muhammad bin Hasan al-Saffar from Yaqoob bin Yazid from Ayyub bin Nuh that he said: I said to ar-Reza (a.s.): “We hope that you will be the master of this affair and that may Allah, the Exalted restore power to you without taking up arms.

You have been pledged allegiance to and coins have been struck in your name.” He said, “There is no one of us that letters come and go to him, is asked questions, pointed with fingers, and religious dues taken to, but he will be assassinated or he will die on his bed, until Allah, the Exalted, sends for this matter a man whose birth and place of growth will be hidden and he will not be hidden in his lineage.” 2 -Narrated to us my father (r.a.): Narrated to us Saad bin Abdullah: Narrated to us Ja’far bin Muhammad bin Malik Fazari from Ali bin Hasan bin Faddal from Rayyan bin Salt that he said: I heard him say: Abul Hasan ar-Reza was asked regarding the Qaim.

He replied: “His person will not be seen and his name will not be pronounced.” 3 - Narrated to us my father (r.a.): Narrated to us Abdullah bin Ja’far Himyari from Ahmad bin Hilal Abartai from Hasan bin Mahboob from Abil Hasan Ali bin Musa ar-Reza (a.s.) that: He said to me: “Definitely, there will occur the dumb, catastrophic mischief, in which every secret and close relation will be dropped. That will happen when the Shia will miss my third descendant.

The dwellers of the heavens and the earth, and every worthy and merited man, every contrite and sorrowful person will cry for him.” Then he said, “May my parents be sacrificed for the namesake of my grandfather and my look-alike and the look-alike of Musa the son of Imran. He is dressed in the garments of light, shining with rays of illumination of sanctity. How abundant worthy men of faith and how abundant sorrowful men of belief will be perplexed and grievous at the loss of that crystal spring.
