Hadith 212
۞
28-4 (The author of the book narrated) my father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Sa’d ibn Abdullah quoted on the authority of Al-Hassan ibn Ali al-Zaytooni and Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Abi Qatada, on the authority of Ahmad ibn Hilal, on the authority of Sa’eed ibn Soleiman, on the authority of Soleiman ibn Ja’far al-Ja’fari, “
I asked Al-Ridha (s), ‘Will the Earth be left without a Proof?’ The Imam (s) said, ‘No. If the Earth is left without a Proof for even a moment, it will take in all its residents.’”
4 - حَدَّثَنا أَبي رَضِىَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قالَ: حَدَّثَنا سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّه عَنِ الحَسَن بْنِ عَلِى الزيتونِي وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدِ بْنِ أَبي قتادة عَنْ أَحْمَدِ بْنِ هِلالٍ، عَن سَعِيدُ بْنِ سُلَيْمان، عَن سُلَيْمان بْنِ جَعْفَر الحِمْيَريُّ
سألت الرِّضا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ فَقُلْتُ: تخلو الأَرْض من حُجَّةَ؟ فَقالَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ لَوْ خَلَتْ الأَرْضُ طَرْفَةَ عَيْنٍ من حُجَّةٍ لَساخَت بِأهلِها.
