Abil Hassan Al-Ridha (s) told me, ‘There will be a terrible sedition which will cause the cessation of any family ties and friendships. That will be when the Shiites lose my third descendant. At that time all the residents of the heavens and the Earth will cry, and all the fervent men and women plus all the sad people will shed tears.’ The Imam (s) then added, ‘May my father and mother be the ransom for him who has the same name as my grandfather and is similar to Moses - the son of Imran (s). He will be covered with brilliant coverings from which the light of bright holy rays will radiate. There will be many fervent women and sad men thirsty for that delicious water! It is as if I can see them completely hopeless of finding him, when a voice from afar will be heard as if it is from nearby. It will say, ‘He is the Mercy upon the believers and the Chastisement upon the atheists.’”
