About the words of Allah ‘We determine about the israelites..’ (17:14
1 hadithعِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ شَمُّونٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَصَمِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ الْبَطَلِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى وَ قَضَيْنا إِلى بَنِي إِسْرائِيلَ فِي الْكِتابِ لَتُفْسِدُنَّ فِي الْأَرْضِ مَرَّتَيْنِ قَالَ قَتْلُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ (عليه السلام) وَ طَعْنُ الْحَسَنِ (عليه السلام) وَ لَتَعْلُنَّ عُلُوًّا كَبِيراً قَالَ قَتْلُ الْحُسَيْنِ (عليه السلام) فَإِذا جاءَ وَعْدُ أُولاهُما فَإِذَا جَاءَ نَصْرُ دَمِ الْحُسَيْنِ (عليه السلام) بَعَثْنا عَلَيْكُمْ عِباداً لَنا أُولِي بَأْسٍ شَدِيدٍ فَجاسُوا خِلالَ الدِّيارِ قَوْمٌ يَبْعَثُهُمُ اللَّهُ قَبْلَ خُرُوجِ الْقَائِمِ (عليه السلام) فَلَا يَدَعُونَ وَتْراً لآِلِ مُحَمَّدٍ إِلَّا قَتَلُوهُ وَ كانَ وَعْداً مَفْعُولًا خُرُوجُ الْقَائِمِ (عليه السلام) ثُمَّ رَدَدْنا لَكُمُ الْكَرَّةَ عَلَيْهِمْ خُرُوجُ الْحُسَيْنِ (عليه السلام) فِي سَبْعِينَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ عَلَيْهِمُ الْبَيْضُ الْمُذَهَّبُ لِكُلِّ بَيْضَةٍ وَجْهَانِ الْمُؤَدُّونَ إِلَى النَّاسِ أَنَّ هَذَا الْحُسَيْنَ قَدْ خَرَجَ حَتَّى لَا يَشُكَّ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ فِيهِ وَ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِدَجَّالٍ وَ لَا شَيْطَانٍ وَ الْحُجَّةُ الْقَائِمُ بَيْنَ أَظْهُرِهِمْ فَإِذَا اسْتَقَرَّتِ الْمَعْرِفَةُ فِي قُلُوبِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَنَّهُ الْحُسَيْنُ (عليه السلام) جَاءَ الْحُجَّةَ الْمَوْتُ فَيَكُونُ الَّذِي يُغَسِّلُهُ وَ يُكَفِّنُهُ وَ يُحَنِّطُهُ وَ يَلْحَدُهُ فِي حُفْرَتِهِ الْحُسَيْنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ (عليه السلام) وَ لَا يَلِي الْوَصِيَّ إِلَّا الْوَصِيُّ.
250. A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Muhammad Bin Al-Hassan Bin Shammoun, from Abdullah Bin Abdul Rahmaan Al-A’asam, from Abdullah Bin Al-Qasim Al-Batl, who has narrated the following: Abu Abdullah عليه الصلاة والسلام regarding the Statement: “[17:4] And We had made known to the children of Israel in the Book: Most certainly you will make mischief in the land twice”, he عليه الصلاة والسلام said: ‘The killing of Ali عليه الصلاة والسلام Bin Abu Talib عليه الصلاة والسلام and the stabbing of Al-Hassan عليه الصلاة والسلام’. “and most certainly you will behave insolently with great insolence”, he عليه الصلاة والسلام said (this refers to): ‘The killing of Al-Husayn عليه الصلاة والسلام’. “[17:5] So when the promise for the first of the two came, So when the help comes for the blood of Al-Husayn عليه الصلاة والسلام, We sent over you Our servants, of mighty prowess, so they go to and fro among the houses, a people whom Allah عز وجل will be Sending before the coming out of Al-Qaim (ajfj) (who will serve him (ajfj) and under his (ajfj) command) they will not leave an enemy of the Progeny عليه الصلاة والسلام of Muhammad صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم except that they will kill him. and it was a promise to be accomplished” This is the coming of Al-Qaim عليه الصلاة والسلام. “[17:6] Then We gave you back the turn to prevail against them, This is the coming of Al-Husayn عليه الصلاة والسلام and seventy of his عليه الصلاة والسلام companions who will be wearing protective helmets. For each of the helmets would be two facets to demonstrate to the people that this is indeed Al-Husayn عليه الصلاة والسلام who has come out, until the Believers would have no doubts about it, and that he عليه الصلاة والسلام is neither Al-Dajjaal (la), nor Satan (la), and Al-Hujjat Al-Qaim عليه الصلاة والسلام would also come in their support. So when the recognition would be settled in the hearts of the Believers that he عليه الصلاة والسلام is indeed Al-Husayn عليه الصلاة والسلام, the death will approach Al-Hujjat عليه الصلاة والسلام. So the one عليه الصلاة والسلام who would be washing him عليه الصلاة والسلام, and shrouding him عليه الصلاة والسلام, and embalming him عليه الصلاة والسلام, and burying him عليه الصلاة والسلام in his عليه الصلاة والسلام grave would be Al-Husayn Bin Ali عليه الصلاة والسلام, no one follows the successor عليه الصلاة والسلام except for the successor عليه الصلاة والسلام’.
