13. Sahl, from Muhammad, from his father has narrated: Abu Abdullah (asws) having said when it was said to him (asws) “[88:1] Has not there come to you the news of the overwhelming calamity?”, he (asws) said: ‘They will be overwhelmed by the sword of the Rising One (Al-Qaim (asws))’. He said, ‘I said, (What about) “[88:2] Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated”?’ He (asws) said: ‘They will be so humiliated that they will not be able to bear the exclusion’. He said, ‘I asked. ‘(What about) “[88:3] Labouring”?’ He (asws) said: ‘Labouring for other than what Allah (azwj) Revealed’. I then asked, (What about) “[88:3] Appointing”?’ He (asws) replied: ‘Having appointed other than the Master (asws) of the Command (Wali Al-Amr)’. He says then I asked, (What about) “[88:4] Entering into burning fire”?’ He (asws) replied: ‘Entering into the fire of the war in the world during the era of the Rising One (Al-Qaim (asws)), and in the Hereafter the Fire of Hell’.
