Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, ‘O Sadir! By Allah, were I to have followers as many as these goats, it would not be permissible for me to desist [from revolt]. Sadar narrated, ‘We disembarked and prayed, and when we finished the prayer, I looked at the goats and counted them, and there were only seventeen!
قالَ الإمامُ الصّادقُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) لسدير ـ: واللّهِ يا سَديرُ، لَو كانَ لي شِيعةٌ بِعَدَدِ هذهِ الجِداءِ ما وَسِعَني القُعودُ. [ قال سدير:] نَزَلْنا وصَلَّيْنا، فلَمّا فَرَغْنا مِنَ الصَّلاةِ عَطَفْتُ علَى الجِداءِ، فعَدَدْتُها فإذا هِيَ سَبْعَةَ عَشَرَ.
