506. Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Sinan, from Al-Sabaah Bin Abdul Hameed, from Muhammad Bin Muslim, who has narrated the following: Abu Ja’far (asws) has said: ‘By Allah (azwj), that which Al-Hassan Bin Ali (asws) did was better for this community than all that upon which the sun rises. By Allah (azwj), this Verse had been Revealed: “[4:77] Have you not seen those to whom it was said: Withhold your hands, and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate" but rather, it is the obedience to the Imam (asws), and they sought to fight, but when fighting is prescribed for them alongside Al-Husayn (asws) they say: Our Lord! why hast Thou ordained fighting for us? Wherefore didst Thou not grant us a delay to a near end?” we would have responded to Your (azwj) Call and we would have followed the Messengers (as). They intended to delay that to Al-Qaim (asws)’.
