Narrated to us Muhammad bin Ibrahim bin Ishaq from Abdul Aziz bin Yahya from Ibrahim bin Fahad quoting from Muhammad bin Uqbah from Husain bin Hasan from Ismail bin Umar from Umar bin Musa Wajihi from Minhal bin Amr from Abdullah bin al-Harith that he said: I asked Ali (as) “O Amiral Momineen, please inform me of the events that shall occur after your Qaim.” He replied: “O ibn Harith it is something that only he is entrusted to say. And the Messenger of Allah (sw) made me promise that except for Hasan and Husain, I shall not tell anyone anything about it.”
