15. Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Fazaal, from Sa’albat Bin Maymoun, from Badr Bin Al-Khaleel Al-Asady who said
‘I heard Abu Ja’far (asws) saying regarding the Statement of Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic: “[21:12] Yet, when they felt Our Punishment (coming), behold, they (tried to) flee from it. [21:13] Flee not, but return to the good things of this life which were given you, and to your homes in order that ye may be called to account.” He (asws) said: ‘When Al-Qaim (asws) makes the stand, and sends (an army) to the Clan of Umayya in Syria, so they will run away to ‘al-Rome’. So the Romans will say to them, ‘We will not let you enter until you become Christians’. So they will hang crosses upon their necks and allow them to enter. So when the companions of Al-Qaim (asws) descend upon them, they (Romans) will seek security and reconciliation. So the companions of Al-Qaim (asws) will say, ‘We will not do that until you hand over to us the ones who came to you beforehand from us’. So they will hand them over. So that is His (azwj) Statement: “[21:13] Flee not, but return to the good things of this life which were given you, and to your homes in order that ye may be called to account”. He (asws) said: ‘So he (asws) will question them about the treasure although he (asws) knows more than them about it. So they will say, ‘O woe be upon us! Surely we have been unjust’. They will not cease invoking that invocation of theirs until they will be cut down to extinction by the sword’.
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ عَنْ بَدْرِ بْنِ الْخَلِيلِ الْأَسَدِيِّ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ (عليه السلام) يَقُولُ فِي قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَلَمَّا أَحَسُّوا بَأْسَنا إِذا هُمْ مِنْها يَرْكُضُونَ لا تَرْكُضُوا وَ ارْجِعُوا إِلى ما أُتْرِفْتُمْ فِيهِ وَ مَساكِنِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُسْئَلُونَ قَالَ إِذَا قَامَ الْقَائِمُ وَ بَعَثَ إِلَى بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ بِالشَّامِ فَهَرَبُوا إِلَى الرُّومِ فَيَقُولُ لَهُمُ الرُّومُ لَا نُدْخِلَنَّكُمْ حَتَّى تَتَنَصَّرُوا فَيُعَلِّقُونَ فِي أَعْنَاقِهِمُ الصُّلْبَانَ فَيُدْخِلُونَهُمْ فَإِذَا نَزَلَ بِحَضْرَتِهِمْ أَصْحَابُ الْقَائِمِ طَلَبُوا الْأَمَانَ وَ الصُّلْحَ فَيَقُولُ أَصْحَابُ الْقَائِمِ لَا نَفْعَلُ حَتَّى تَدْفَعُوا إِلَيْنَا مَنْ قِبَلَكُمْ مِنَّا قَالَ فَيَدْفَعُونَهُمْ إِلَيْهِمْ فَذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ لا تَرْكُضُوا وَ ارْجِعُوا إِلى ما أُتْرِفْتُمْ فِيهِ وَ مَساكِنِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُسْئَلُونَ قَالَ يَسْأَلُهُمُ الْكُنُوزَ وَ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِهَا قَالَ فَيَقُولُونَ يا وَيْلَنا إِنَّا كُنَّا ظالِمِينَ فَما زاَلَتْ تِلْكَ دَعْواهُمْ حَتَّى جَعَلْناهُمْ حَصِيداً خامِدِينَ بِالسَّيْفِ.
