Hadith 593
۞
593. Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Al-Husayn, from Abdul Rahman Bin Abu Hisham, from Anbasat Bin Bajaad Al-Abid, from Jabir, who has said
‘We were in the presence Abu Ja’far (asws), and the authority of the Clan of Umayya was mentioned, so Abu Ja’far (asws) said: ‘No one comes out (rebels) against Hisham except that he gets killed’. ‘And he (asws) also mentioned that his government would last for twenty years’. He (the narrator) said, ‘That grieved us’. So he (asws) said: ‘What is the matter with you? Whenever Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic Intends to Destroy the authority of a people, He (azwj) Commands the Angel to quicken the pace of the orbit in accordance to what He (azwj) Intends to’. He (the narrator) said, ‘So we said to Zayd, ‘This is the discussion we had’. So he said, ‘I witnessed Hisham, and the Rasool Allah (saww) was insulted in his presence, so he neither denied that, nor did he change it. By Allah (azwj)! Even if there is no one except for myself and my son, I would come out (in rebellion) against him’.
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي هَاشِمٍ عَنْ عَنْبَسَةَ بْنِ بِجَادٍ الْعَابِدِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عليه السلام) قَالَ
كُنَّا عِنْدَهُ وَ ذَكَرُوا سُلْطَانَ بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ فَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ (عليه السلام) لَا يَخْرُجُ عَلَى هِشَامٍ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا قَتَلَهُ قَالَ وَ ذَكَرَ مُلْكَهُ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً قَالَ فَجَزِعْنَا فَقَالَ مَا لَكُمْ إِذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنْ يُهْلِكَ سُلْطَانَ قَوْمٍ أَمَرَ الْمَلَكَ فَأَسْرَعَ بِسَيْرِ الْفَلَكِ فَقَدَّرَ عَلَى مَا يُرِيدُ قَالَ فَقُلْنَا لِزَيْدٍ (عليه السلام) هَذِهِ الْمَقَالَةَ فَقَالَ إِنِّي شَهِدْتُ هِشَاماً وَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) يُسَبُّ عِنْدَهُ فَلَمْ يُنْكِرْ ذَلِكَ وَ لَمْ يُغَيِّرْهُ فَوَ اللَّهِ لَوْ لَمْ يَكُنْ إِلَّا أَنَا وَ ابْنِي لَخَرَجْتُ عَلَيْهِ.
