Informed Regarding the Occurrence of the Occultation22- حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى الْعَطَّارُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ هَاشِمٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ الْجَمَّالِ قَالَ قَالَ الصَّادِقُ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ع أَمَا وَ اللَّهِ لَيَغِيبَنَّ عَنْكُمْ مَهْدِيُّكُمْ حَتَّى يَقُولَ الْجَاهِلُ مِنْكُمْ مَا لِلَّهِ فِي آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ حَاجَةٌ ثُمَّ يُقْبِلُ كَالشِّهَابِ الثَّاقِبِ فَيَمْلَؤُهَا عَدْلًا وَ قِسْطاً كَمَا مُلِئَتْ جَوْراً وَ ظُلْماً.
22 - Narrated to us Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Yahya al-Attar (r.a.): Narrated to us my father from Ibrahim bin Hashim from Muhammad bin Abi Umair from Safwan bin Mehran Jammal that he said: As-Sadiq Ja’far bin Muhammad said: “Indeed he shall go into occultation till the ignorant will say: For the Almighty Allah there is no need of Aale Muhammad. Then he would appear like a shooting star and fill up the earth with equity and justice just as it would be brimming with injustice and oppression.”
