H 430 - It is narrated from Fadhl from Ali bin Asbat from Muhammad bin Abi Bilad from Ali bin Muhammad Awdi from his father from his grandfather that Amirul Momineen (a.s) said
“Before the Qaim, there will be red death and white death; there will be locusts at their usual time and at their unusual time like the colors of blood. As for red death it is (from) the sword, while the white death is (from) plague.”
430- وروى الفضل، عن علي بن أسباط، عن محمد بن أبي البلاد، عن علي بن محمد الاودي، عن أبيه، عن جده قال
قال أمير المؤمنين عليه السلام: بين يدي القائم موت أحمر، وموت أبيض، وجراد في حينه، وجراد في غير حينه، أحمر كألوان الدم. فأما الموت الاحمر فالسيف، وأما الموت الابيض فالطاعون.
