سورة ابراهيم

Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him): Sad ibn Umar narrates from a number of those who were present in the time of Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him): The houses of the Abbasids were mentioned, and a man said: "May Allah show us their ruins, or may He ruin these houses by our hands." Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him) said: "Do not say so! For these dwellings will become the houses and abodes of Hazrat Qaim (may Allah hasten his noble relief) and his companions. Have you not heard this verse in which Allah the Exalted says: وَ سَکَنتُمْ فِی مَسَاکِنِ الَّذِینَ ظَلَمُواْ أَنفُسَهُمْ [And you dwelt in the dwellings of those who wronged themselves]?!"

Imam Askari (peace be upon him): وَ سَکَنتُمْ فِی مَسَاکِنِ الَّذِینَ ظَلَمُواْ أَنفُسَهُمْ [And you dwelt in the dwellings of those who wronged themselves]; that is, the Bani Umayya who were destroyed. وَ تَبَیَّنَ لَکُمْ کَیْفَ فَعَلْنا بِهِمْ وَ ضَرَبْنا لَکُمُ الْأَمْثالَ [And it became clear to you how We dealt with them, and We set forth for you the parables].
