Imam Sajjad (PBUH) said: “Our Qa’im has signs from six prophets:
1- a sign from Noah (PBUH);
2- a sign from Ibrahim (PBUH);
3- a sign from Jesus (PBUH);
4- a sign from Moses (PBUH);
5- a sign from Jacob (PBUH);
6- a sign from Muhammad (PBUH).”
“But his sign from Noah (PBUH) is the long life; his sign from Ibrahim (PBUH) is the secrecy of his birthplace; his sign from Moses (PBUH) is his fear of enemy and absence that Moses (PBUH) left Egypt to Midian due to his fear of Pharaoh and his army and was hidden for a while; his sign from Jesus (PBUH) is dispute among people about him and his seclusion from people; his sign from Jacob (PBUH) is his victory over problems and troubles; and his sign from Muhammad (PBUH) is his insurrection by sword.”
( The book of A’alam al-Vara, p. 290)
In some narrations a sign from Joseph (PBUH) is mentioned and that is being imprisoned.
The incredible glory and strength of Imam Mahdi (PBUH)
Imam Reza (PBUH) says in a narration: “Qa’im is the one who is old at the time of his Reappearance but has a young face; and he has that much physical strength that if he lays his hand on the biggest tree on Earth, he would uproot it and if he raises his voice among mountains, mountain rocks would turn into pieces. He has the Staff of Moses and the Seal of Solomon with him.”
(Kashf al-Ghumma, 3:445, Ea’lam al-Wara 407)
