Arabic text

26 - أخبرنا محمد بن يعقوب، عن علي بن محمد، عن سهل بن زياد، عن محمد بن الحسين بن شمون، عن عبد الله بن عبد الرحمن الأصمّ، عن كرام قال: حلفتُ فيما بيني وبين نفسي ألاّ آكلَ طعاماً بنهار أبداً حتى يقومَ قائمُ آل محمد، فدخلتُ على أبي عبد الله فقلت له: رجل من شيعتك جعل لله عليه ألاّ يأكل طعاماً بنهار أبداً حتى يقوم قائم آل محمد. فقال: صُم يا كرام، ولا تصُم العيدَين ولا ثلاثةَ أيام التشريق، ولا إذا كنتَ مسافراً، فإن الحسين لما قُتل عجّت السماوات والأرض ومَن عليهما والملائكة، فقالوا: يا ربّنا أتأذن لنا في هلاك الخلق حتى نجذّهم من جديد الأرض بما استحلوا حرمتك وقتلوا صفوتك؟ فأوحى الله إليهم: يا ملائكتي ويا سمائي ويا أرضي اسكنوا. ثم كشف حجاباً من الحجب فإذا خلفه محمدٌ واثنا عشر وصياً له فأخذ بيد فلان مِن بينهم فقال: يا ملائكتي ويا سماواتي ويا أرضي بهذا أنتصر منهم لهذا - قالها ثلاث مرات -. وجاء في غير رواية محمد بن يعقوب الكليني: بهذا أنتصر منهم ولو بعد حين.

Translation

(26) Muhammad bin Ya’qoob narrated from Ali bin Muhammad from Sahl bin Ziyad from Muhammad bin al-Hasan bin Shammoon from Abdullah bin Abdurrahman al-Assamm that Karram had said: I have promised myself not to eat any kind of food during the day at all until al-Qa’im of Muhammad’s family appears. I came to Abu Abdullah as-Sadiq (as) and said to him: “I am one of your Shia. I have promised Allah not to eat any kind of food at all during the day until al-Qa’im appears.” He said to me: “O Karram, fast! But do not fast on the days of the two Eids nor the three days of al-Tashreeq or when you are on travel. When al-Husayn (as) was killed there was a clamor in the Heaven and on the earth. The angels said: “O our Lord, do You permit us to perish the human beings and to terminate them from on the earth for what they have committed when trespassing Your sanctity by killing the choice of Yours?” Allah revealed to the angels: “O My angels, My Heaven and My earth, be quiet!” Then He uncovered one of the covers. Behind it were Muhammad and twelve guardians of his. Allah held one from among them by the hand and said: “O My angels, My Heavens and My earth, with this one I will avenge this killed one upon his killers.” He repeated it three times.”
