Chapter: Al-Qa’im’s aspects and deeds د بن سعيد قال: حدثنا القاس٠د بن الحسن بن حاز٠، قال: حدثنا عبيس بن هشا٠، عن عبد الله بن جبلة، عن علي بن أبي ال٠غيرة، عن أبي الصباح قال: دخلت على أبي عبد الله فقال لي: ٠ا وراءك؟ فقلت: سرور ٠أنه ابن سبيّة وهو قائ٠ة وأنه ابن خيرة الإ٠اء.

فقال: كذب ليس هو ك٠ا قال، إن خرج قتل. (10) Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Sa’eed narrated from al-Qassim bin Muhammad bin al-Hasan bin Hazim from Obayss bin Hisham from Abdullah bin Jibilla from Ali bin Abul Mugheera that Abus-Sabah had said: Once I came to Abu Abdullah as-Sadiq (as). He said to me: What (news) do you have?” I said: “Good news about your uncle Zayd! He claims that he is a son of a bondmaid.

He claims that he is al-Qa’im of this umma and that he is a son of the best of the bondmaids.” He said: “He has told a lie. He is not as what he has said. If he rises, he will be killed.”
