(12) Abu Sulayman Ahmad bin Hawtha al-Bahili narrated from Ibraheem bin Iss’haq an-Nahawandi from Abdullah bin Hammad al-Ansari from Abul-Jarood that Abu Ja’far al-Baqir (as) had said to him
“O Abul-Jarood, if the orbit turns and people say that he (al-Mahdi) has died, perished or followed an unknown valley and the opponents say that how he will be back whereas his bones have been perished, then you are to expect him and if you hear of his appearance, you are to join him even if crawling on the ice.”
12 - أخبرنا أبو سليمان أحمد بن هوذة الباهلي قال: حدثنا إبراهيم بن إسحاق النهاوندي سنة ثلاث وسبعين ومائتين قال: حدثنا عبد الله بن حماد الأنصاري سنة تسع وعشرين ومائتين، عن أبي الجارود، عن أبي جعفر قال
قال لي: يا أبا الجارود، إذا دار الفلك وقالوا: مات أو هلك، وبأيّ واد سلك، وقال الطالب له: إنّى يكون ذلك وقد بُليت عظامه فعند ذلك فارتَجوه، وإذا سمِعتم به فأتوه ولو حَبواً على الثلج.
