What is Narrated From Al-Askari عليه السلام Regarding the Designation of Al-qa'im

حَدَّثَنَا الْمُظَفَّرُ بْنُ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ الْمُظَفَّرِ الْعَلَوِيُّ السَّمَرْقَنْدِيُّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ الْعَيَّاشِيُّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ كُلْثُومٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ الرَّازِيِّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ الْحَسَنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍ‌ الْعَسْكَرِيَّ ع يَقُولُ‌ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي لَمْ يُخْرِجْنِي مِنَ الدُّنْيَا حَتَّى أَرَانِي الْخَلَفَ مِنْ بَعْدِي أَشْبَهَ النَّاسِ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص خَلْقاً وَ خُلْقاً يَحْفَظُهُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى فِي غَيْبَتِهِ ثُمَّ يُظْهِرُهُ فَيَمْلَأُ الْأَرْضَ عَدْلًا وَ قِسْطاً كَمَا مُلِئَتْ جَوْراً وَ ظُلْماً.
Narrated to us Muzaffar bin Ja’far bin Muzaffar Alawi Samarqandi رضي الله عنه: Narrated to us Ja’far bin Muhammad bin Masud Ayyashi from his father from Ahmad bin Ali bin Kulthum from Ali bin Ahmad ar-Raazi from Ahmad bin Ishaq bin Saeed that he said: I heard Aba Muhammad Hasan bin Ali al-Askari عليه السلام say: “All praise is due to Allah, the One who did not take me from the world until He showed me the heir after me, the one who from all of us, is most resembling the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم in his physique and in his character. May Allah, the High, protect him in his occultation and then manifest him, so that he may fill the earth with justice and equity as it would be fraught with injustice and tyranny.”
