What Al-Baqir عليه السلام Informed Regarding the Occurrence of the Occultation
32- حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْفُضَيْلِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع يَا مَنْصُورُ إِنَّ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ لَا يَأْتِيكُمْ إِلَّا بَعْدَ إِيَاسٍ لَا وَ اللَّهِ لَا يَأْتِيكُمْ حَتَّى تُمَيَّزُوا لَا وَ اللَّهِ لَا يَأْتِيكُمْ حَتَّى تُمَحَّصُوا وَ لَا وَ اللَّهِ لَا يَأْتِيكُمْ حَتَّى يَشْقَى مَنْ شَقِيَ وَ يَسْعَدَ مَنْ سَعِدَ.
32 - Narrated to us my father رضي الله عنه: Narrated to us Ali bin Ibrahim from his father from Muhammad bin Fudhail from his father from Mansur that Abu Abdullah عليه السلام said:
“That time (of reappearance) shall not come to pass but after you have become despondent and hopeless. No, I swear by Allah, till you are separated from each other. No I swear by Allah, till you are severely tested. No I swear by Allah, till the time that the unfortunate ones become unfortunate while the fortunate ones become fortunate.”
