حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى وَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَلِيٍّ الْبَجَلِيِّ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ بْنِ أَعْيَنَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عليه السلام فِي حَدِيثٍ لَهُ فِي الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عليه السلام أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي آخِرِهِ وَ لَوْ لَا مَنْ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ مِنْ حُجَجِ اللَّهِ لَنَفَضَتِ الْأَرْضُ مَا فِيهَا وَ أَلْقَتْ مَا عَلَيْهَا إِنَّ الْأَرْضَ لَا تَخْلُو سَاعَةً مِنَ الْحُجَّةِ.
Narrated to us my father (ra) that he said: Narrated to us Saad bin Abdullah that he said: Narrated to us Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Isa and Ibrahim bin Mahziyar from Ali bin Mahziyar from Husain bin Saeed from Abi Ali Bajali from Aban bin Uthman from Zurarah bin Uyun from Abi Abdullah (as) that he said at the end of the tradition about Husain bin Ali (as): “If the Divine Proof does not remain on the earth, it will be destroyed along with whatever is in it and upon it. The earth cannot be devoid of Divine Proof for a moment.”
