hadith 715

H 446 - It is narrated from Fadhl from Muhammad bin Ali from Salam bin Abdullah from Abu Basir from Bakr bin Harb from Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s) that he said

“The kingdom of Bani so-and-so cannot decline till the two swords of so-and-so do not clash. When they clash, their kingdom will begin to decline.”

446- عنه، عن محمد بن علي، عن سلام بن عبد الله، عن أبي بصير، عن بكر بن حرب، عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام قال

لا يكون فساد ملك بني فلان حتى يختلف سيفا بني فلان، فإذا اختلفا كان عند ذلك فساد ملكهم.
