Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 2810 — I accompanied Sayyiduna Ali until he

Abu Hibarah said: I accompanied Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) until he reached Kufah. He ascended the pulpit, praised and glorified Allah, and then said: "How will you be when the offspring of your Prophet come down among you?" The people said: Then we will acquit ourselves excellently before Allah regarding them. He said: "By the One in whose hand is my soul, they will surely come down among you, and you will surely go out against them and kill them." Then he began reciting this verse:
"It was they who led them to death through deception and then fled; they sought a deliverance in which there is neither deliverance nor any excuse."
