163 - صُعوبَةُ التّمَسُّكِ بِالدِّينِ في غَيبةِ لإمام‏

163. The Difficulty of Adhering to the Religion during the Occultation of the Imam

492.رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله : والّذي بَعثَني بالحقِّ بشيراً ، إنّ الثّابِتِينَ على‏ القَولِ بهِ في زمانِ غَيبتِه لَأعزُّ مِنَ الكِبريتِ الأحْمَرِ .1

492.The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'By Him who has sent me down as the bearer of good news, certainly those who are steadfast in their belief in him during his occultation are dearer than red sulphur [elixir].' 2

493.الغيبة للنعماني عن الإمامِ الصّادقِ عليه السلام : إنّ لِصاحِبِ هذا الأمرِ غَيبةً المُتَمَسِّكُ فيها بدِينهِ كالخارِطِ لِشَوْكِ القَتادِ بيَدِهِ .
- ثُمّ أطْرَقَ مَلِيّاً ثُمّ قالَ : - إنّ لِصاحِبِ هذا الأمرِ غَيْبةً فَلْيَتَّقِ اللَّهَ عَبدٌ ولْيتَمَسَّكْ بدِينِهِ .3

493. Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said to Ibn Sinan, 'Certainly the rightful owner of this rule will have an occultation, such that the one who adheres to his religion during it will be like one who clutches on to a thorn bush with his hands.' Then he observed silence for a while and then said, 'The rightful owner of this rule will have an occultation, so let the servant be Godwary and adhere to his religion.' 4

162 - غَيبَتا الإمامِ القائِمِ عليه السلام‏

162. The Two Occultations of Imam al-Qaim

491.الإمامُ الصّادقُ عليه السلام : للقائمِ غَيبتانِ : إحْداهُما طويلةٌ ، والاُخرى‏ قصيرةٌ ، فالاُولى‏ يَعلَمُ بمكانِهِ فيها خاصّةٌ مِن شيعتِهِ، والاُخرى‏ لا يَعلمُ بمكانِهِ فيها (إلّا) خاصّةُ مواليهِ في دِينهِ .1

491.Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, 'Al-Qaim will have two occultations, one of which will be long and the other short. During the first, a few elite followers (Shia) will know his location, and during the second one, none will know his location save his selected supporters in faith.' 2
