Chapter 10 | Disappearance of the expected Imam

3 - وبه عن أبي الجارود، عن عبد الله الشاعر - يعنى ابن عقبة - قال: سمعت علياً يقول: كأني بكم تجولون جولان الإبل تبتغون مرعي، ولا تجدونها يا معشر الشيعة.

(3) Abul Jarood narrated that Abdullah (bin Aqaba) al-Sha’ir (the poet) had said: I heard Ali saying: “O people of Shia, as if I see you wandering about like the camels looking for a pasture but without finding any.”
