(7) Abban bin Taghlub narrated that Abu Abdullah as-Sadiq (as) had said
“What will you do if a time comes to you between the two mosques, at which knowledge will be bound as a snake bound in its hole and the Shia will disagree among themselves, will call each other as liars and will spit at the face of each other?” Abban said: “What goodness will be in that?” He said: “All the goodness will be in that.” He said it three times and he meant that deliverance would be near.” The same was narrated by Muhammad bin Ya’qoob al-Kulayni from some of his companions from Ahmad bin Muhammad from al-Hasan bin Ali al-Washsha’ from Ali bin al-Husayn from Abban bin Taghlub from Abu Abdullah as-Sadiq (as).
7 - وبه، عن أبان بن تغلب، عن أبي عبد الله
أنه قال: كيف أنتم إذا وقعت السّبطة بين المسجدَين فيأرز العلم فيها كما تأرز الحيةُ في جحرها واختلفت الشيعةُ بينهم وسمّى بعضُهم بعضاً كذّابين، ويتفل بعضُهم في وجوه بعض. فقلت: ما عند ذلك مِن خير؟ قال: الخير كلّه عند ذلك - يقوله ثلاثا - يريد قرب الفرج.
