37 - حَدَّثَنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْراهيمَ بْنِ إِسْحاقَ الطَّالِقانِيُّ رَضِىَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قالَ: حَدَّثَنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْهَمَذانيّ قالَ: حَدَّثَنا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ العاصِمِيّ، عَنِ الحُسَيْنِ بْنِ قاسِمِ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ، عَنِ الحَسَنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَماعَةِ، عَنْ ثابِتٍ الصَبَّاغِ، عَنْ أَبي بَصِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ‏ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ قالَ: سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ: مِنَّا اثْنا عَشَرَ مَهْدِيّاً: مَضى‏ سِتَّةٌ وَبَقِيَ سِتَّةٌ، وَيَصْنَعُ اللَّهُ فِي السَّادِسِ ما أَحَبَّ.وَقَدْ أَخْرَجْتُ الأَخْبارَ الَّتِي رُوِّيتُها فِي هذَا الْمَعْنى‏ فِي كِتابِ «كَمال الدِّينِ وَتَمامِ النِّعْمَةِ فِي إِثْباتِ الغَيْبَةِ وَكَشْفِ الحَيْرَةِ» وَاللَّهُ - تَعالى‏ - أَعْلَمُ.

Translation

6-37 Muhammad ibn Ibrahim ibn Ishaq al-Taliqani - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-Hamadani quoted on the authority of Abu Abdullah al-Asemi, on the authority of Al-Hussein ibn Qasim ibn Ayyoub, on the authority of Al-Hassan ibn Muhammad ibn Sama’a, on the authority of Thabit As-Sab’baq that he had heard Abi Abdullah (s) say, “There are twelve Mahdi’s among us. Six of them have left, and six remain. God will do as He pleases with the sixth one.”(Sheih Sadooq said,) I have compiled such traditions in the book KAMAL AD-DIN WA TAMAM AN-NE’MAH FI ITHBAT AL-GHAYBAT WA KASHF IL-HAYRA. God the Sublime knows best.
