H 433 - It is narrated from Fadhl from Ibn Abi Najran from Muhammad bin Sinan from Abul Jarud from Muhammad bin Bashar that he asked
Muhammad bin Hanafiyyah about the reappearance of Imam Mahdi (a.s) and he said: “How is it possible so soon? The cruel time has not yet arrived. How is it possible so soon? As yet brothers have not started oppressing brothers. How is it possible so soon? The ruler of the time has not started oppressing. How is it possible so soon? The atheists have not staged an uprising from Qazwin. That they may halt their progress; who may change their town shelters, who destroys their joys, who apprehends those who try to flee from them, who kills those who come out to fight them, those who recede to solitude become needful, one who obeys them becomes a denier; so much so that there will finally be two kinds of mourners: One who will mourn for their religion and another, who will mourn for their world.”
433- الفضل، عن ابن أبي نجران، عن محمد بن سنان، عن أبي الجارود، عن محمد بن بشر، عن محمد بن الحنفية قال
قلت له: قد طال هذا الأمر حتى متى؟ قال: فحرك رأسه ثم قال: أنى يكون ذلك ولم يعض الزمان؟ أنى يكون ذلك ولم يجفوا الاخوان؟ أنى يكون ذلك ولم يظلم السلطان؟ أنى يكون ذلك ولم يقم الزنديق من قزوين فيهتك ستورها ويكفر صدورها ويغير سورها ويذهب بهجتها؟ من فر منه أدركه، ومن حاربه قتله، ومن اعتزله افتقر، ومن تابعه كفر حتى يقوم باكيان: باك يبكي على دينه وباك يبكي على دنياه.
