Hadith 449
۞
449. Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Al-Husayn Bin Saeed, from Fazaalat Bin Ayyub, from Sayf Bin Umeyr, from Abu Bakr Al-Hazramy, from Abdul Malik Bin Ayn who said
I got up in the presence of Abu Ja’far (asws), supporting myself by my hands, so I wept’. He (asws) said: ‘What is the matter with you?’ So I said, ‘I used to hope that I would see this Command (Al-Qaim (asws)) whilst having strength’. So he (asws) said: ‘But are you not happy that your enemies kill each other and you are safe in your houses?’ If that event were to take place, the man from among you would be given the strength of forty men and your hearts would become like blocks of iron. If thrown against the mountain, it would be uprooted. You are the strength of the earth and its treasures’.
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ أَعْيَنَ قَالَ
قُمْتُ مِنْ عِنْدِ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) فَاعْتَمَدْتُ عَلَى يَدِي فَبَكَيْتُ فَقَالَ مَا لَكَ فَقُلْتُ كُنْتُ أَرْجُو أَنْ أُدْرِكَ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ وَ بِيَ قُوَّةٌ فَقَالَ أَ مَا تَرْضَوْنَ أَنَّ عَدُوَّكُمْ يَقْتُلُ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضاً وَ أَنْتُمْ آمِنُونَ فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ إِنَّهُ لَوْ قَدْ كَانَ ذَلِكَ أُعْطِيَ الرَّجُلُ مِنْكُمْ قُوَّةَ أَرْبَعِينَ رَجُلًا وَ جُعِلَتْ قُلُوبُكُمْ كَزُبَرِ الْحَدِيدِ لَوْ قُذِفَ بِهَا الْجِبَالَ لَقَلَعَتْهَا وَ كُنْتُمْ قِوَامَ الْأَرْضِ وَ خُزَّانَهَا.
