What the Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم Informed Regarding the Occurrence of the Occultation

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَمْرٍو الْبَلْخِيُ‌ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي خَلَفُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ الْجَبَلِيِّ عَنِ الْخَطَّابِ بْنِ مُصْعَبٍ عَنْ سَدِيرٍ عَنْ‌ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عليه السلام قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص‌ طُوبَى لِمَنْ أَدْرَكَ قَائِمَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي وَ هُوَ مُقْتَدٍ بِهِ قَبْلَ قِيَامِهِ يَأْتَمُّ بِهِ وَ بِأَئِمَّةِ الْهُدَى مِنْ قَبْلِهِ وَ يَبْرَأُ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مِنْ عَدُوِّهِمْ أُولَئِكَ رُفَقَائِي وَ أَكْرَمُ أُمَّتِي عَلَيَّ
Narrated to us Abdul Wahid bin Muhammad رضي الله عنه: Narrated to us Abu Amr Balkhi from Muhammad bin Masud: Narrated to me Khalaf bin Hammad from Sahl bin Ziyad from Ismail bin Mehran from Muhammad bin Aslam Jabli from Khattab bin Musab from Sadeer from Abi Abdullah عليه السلام that he said: The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم said: “Glad tidings for those who live till the time of the Qaim of my Ahlul Bayt and follow him before his advent. Those who, during his occultation, have faith in him and the Imams preceding him and will be aloof from their enemies for the sake of Allah, they shall be my friends and the most honorable persons of my Ummah.”
