Hadith 374
۞
As for the belief that Imam Hasan Askari (a.s) will come back to life after his demise and establish the divinely ordained government, arguing on the basis of the tradition from Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s), “He is named Qaim, because he will rise after his demise.” Their belief is wrong, because it is proved that he has passed away, and the claim that he will come back to life requires proof. If it is possible for them to say that the Waqifa might say that Musa Ibn Ja’far will come back to life after his death. Additionally, it follows that the era will be devoid of an Imam after the demise of Hasan until he comes back to life, which has been proved rationally invalid. The traditions, which assert that should the earth remain without an Imam for an hour, it would perish, invalidate this belief.
وأما من قال إن الحسن بن علي عليهما السلام يعيش بعد موته وإنه القائم بالأمر وتعلقهم بما روي عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام
أنه قال: إنما سمي القائم قائما لأنه يقوم بعد ما يموت، فقوله باطل بما دللنا عليه من موته. وادعاؤهم أنه يعيش يحتاج إلى دليل، ولو جاز لهم ذلك لجاز أن تقول الواقفة إن موسى بن جعفر عليهماالسلام يعيش بعد موته. على أن هذا يؤدي إلى خلو الزمان من إمام بعد موت الحسن عليه السلام إلى حين يحيى. وقد دللنا بأدلة عقلية على فساد ذلك.ويدل على فساد ذلك أيضا:
