Kamāl al-Dīn wa Tamām al-Niʿma|Volume 1|Book 2|Chapter 54
20- وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ قَالَ: سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع كَمْ يَخْرُجُ مَعَ الْقَائِمِ ع فَإِنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّهُ يَخْرُجُ مَعَهُ مِثْلُ عِدَّةِ أَهْلِ بَدْرٍ ثَلَاثُمِائَةٍ وَ ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا قَالَ وَ مَا يَخْرُجُ إِلَّا فِي أُولِي قُوَّةٍ وَ مَا تَكُونُ أُولُو الْقُوَّةِ أَقَلَّ مِنْ عَشَرَةِ آلَافٍ.
20 - And through the same chain of narrators from Husain bin Saeed from Ibne Abi Umair from Abi Ayyub from Abi Baseer that he said: A man from Kufa asked Abi Abdullah عليه السلام:
“With how many men would the Qaim arise? It is said that he will appear with 313 persons, equal to the martyrs of Badr?” The Imam said: “He will not appear till he has the required number of people and that number is not less than 10000.”
