1513 - وَقَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «إِنَّ اَللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وتَعَالَى أَمَرَ اَلْحُوتَ بِحَمْلِ اَلْأَرْضِ وَ كُلُّ بَلَدٍ مِنَ اَلْبُلْدَانِ عَلَى فَلْسٍ مِنْ فُلُوسِهِ فَإِذَا أَرَادَ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنْ يُزَلْزِلَ أَرْضاً أَمَرَ اَلْحُوتَ أَنْ يُحَرِّكَ ذَلِكَ اَلْفَلْسَ فَيُحَرِّكُهُ وَ لَوْ رُفِعَ اَلْفَلْسُ لاَنْقَلَبَتِ اَلْأَرْضُ بِإِذْنِ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ.
Hadith.1513 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq 
said:
"Allah (swt), Blessed and Exalted, commanded the whale to carry the earth, and each land among the lands rests on one of its scales. When Allah (swt), the Mighty and Glorious, wills to cause an earthquake in a land, He commands the whale to move that specific scale, and it moves. If the scale were lifted, the earth would be overturned by the permission of Allah (swt), the Mighty and Glorious."
