The Shia when al-Qa’im appears

Abū ʿAbd Allah Muḥammad b. Ibrāhīm al-Nuʿmānī
۞
(8) Abu Sulayman Ahmad bin Hawtha narrated from Ibraheem bin Iss’haq an-Nahawandi from Abdullah bin Hammad al-Ansari from Muhammad bin Ja’far bin Muhammad that his father (Abu Abdullah as-Sadiq) (as) had said
“When al-Qa’im appears, he will send a man to every country of the world. He will say to him: “Your covenant is in your hand. Whenever a matter faces you that you do not understand or do not know how to judge on it, you are to look at (the covenant in) your hand and act according to it.” Then he will send an army to Constantinople. When the army reaches the sea, the soldiers will write on their feet something and will walk on the surface of the water. When the Romans see them walk on the water, they will say: “These are his companions walking on the water so how about him?” Then they will open to them the gates of the city. They enter the city and rule as they like.”
8 - حدثنا أبو سليمان أحمد بن هوذة، قال: حدثنا أبو إسحاق إبراهيم بن إسحاق النهاوندي، قال: حدثني عبد الله بن حماد الأنصاري، عن محمد بن جعفر بن محمد عن أبيه قال
إذا قام القائم بعث في أقاليم الأرض، في كل إقليم رجلاً، يقول: عهدك في كفك فإذا ورد عليك أمر لا تفهمه ولا تعرف القضاء فيه فانظر إلى كفّك واعمل بما فيها، قال: ويبعث جنداً إلى القسطنطينية، فإذا بلغوا الخليج كتبوا على أقدامهم شيئاً ومشوا على الماء، فإذا نظر إليهم الروم يمشون على الماء، قالوا: هؤلاء أصحابه يمشون على الماء، فكيف هو؟ فعند ذلك يفتحون لهم أبواب المدينة، فيدخلونها، فيحكمون فيها ما يشاؤون.
