The signs preceding the appearance

(9) Muhammad bin Hammam narrated from Ja’far bin Muhammad bin Malik al-Fazari from Abdullah bin Khalid at-Tameemi from some of his companions from Muhammad bin Abu Omayr from Abu Ayyoob al-Khazzaz from Umar bin Handhala that Abu Abdullah as-Sadiq عليه السلام had said: “Before the appearance of al-Qa’im there will be five signs; the rising of as-Sufyani, the rising of al-Yamani, a cry from the Heaven, killing the pure innocent man and sinking in the desert.”
