Hadith 317

(The book) ‘Al Ghayba’ of Al Numani – Ibn Uqdah, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad al dinawary, from Ali Bin Al-Husayn Al Kufy, from Amrah Bint Aws, she said, ‘It is narrated to me by my grandfather Al Khazr Bin Abdul Rahman, from Abdullah Bin Hamza, from Ka’ab Al Ahbar having said, ‘When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, the people would be upon four tyres, a type would be riding, and a type would be upon their feet walking, and a type would be crawling, and a type would be upon their faces. (They are) deaf, dumb, blind, so they are not understanding [2: 171], and This is a Day they will not be speaking [77: 35] Nor will there be any Permission for them to be offering excuses [77: 36]. They are those The Fire shall scorch their faces, and they shall be aghast therein [23: 104]’. It was said to him, ‘O Ka’ab! Who are they, Those who would be Gathered upon their faces to Hell, [25: 34], and this state would be their state? ’
Ka’ab said, ‘They are those who would have been in the straying and the reneging and the breaking (of allegiances), so evil is what they would have sent ahead for their own selves, when they battled their caliph and successor-asws of their Prophet-saww, and their scholar, and their meritorious one, and bearer of the flag, and in charge of the Fountain, and the desired, and the hope of this world, and he-asws is the knowledge which cannot be ignored, and the Divine Authority who, one who moves away would crash in collapse in the Fire. That is Ali-asws. By the Lord-azwj of Kabah! He-asws is their most knowledgeable in knowledge, and their most advanced in being a Muslim, and their most abundant in forbearance. Ka’ab is astounded from the ones who advanced others over Ali-asws and the ones who doubt in Al-Qaim-ajfj, Al-Mahdi-ajfj who will change the earth to another earth, and by it is Isa Ibn Maryam-as. He-as will argue against the Christians of Rome and China. Al-Qaim-ajfj Al-Mahdi-ajfj is from the lineage of Ali-asws. He-ajfj is the most resembling of the people with Isa-as Ibn Maryam-as in physique and manners and features and appearance. Allah-azwj Majestic and Mighty will Give him-ajfj what He-azwj had Given the Prophets-as and Increase it and Grace him-ajfj more. Al-Qaim-ajfj is from the sons-asws of Ali-asws. There will be an occultation for him-ajfj like the occultation of Yusuf-as, and a return like the return of Isa-as Ibn Maryam-as. Then he-ajfj will appear after his-ajfj occultation with the rising of another (red) star, and ruination of Al-Zawra’a, and it is Al-Rayy, and submergence of Al-Muzawwara, and it is Baghdad, and emergence of Al-Sufyani, and wars of the Abbasids with the youths of Armenia and Azerbayjan. That war, thousands and thousands will be killed in it, all who grabs upon a polished sword. Black flags would flap upon it. That war, the red death and the great plague would smile during it’’.
