105. Obligation of Revolting Against Tyrant Leaders

329.الدرّ المنثور : - قال رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله - : إنّ رَحَى الإسلامِ سَتَدورُ ، فحَيْثُ ما دارَ القرآنُ فدوروا بِهِ ، يُوشِكُ السُّلطانُ والقرآنُ أنْ يَقْتَتِلا ويَتَفَرَّقا، إنَّهُ سَيَكونُ عَلَيْكُمْ مُلوكٌ يَحْكُمونَ لَكُمْ بِحُكْمٍ ، ولَهُمْ بِغَيْرِهِ ، فإنْ أطَعْتُموهُمْ أضَلُّوكُمْ ، وإنْ عَصَيْتُموهُمْ قَتَلوكُمْ . قالوا : يا رسولَ اللَّهِ ، فكَيْفَ بنا إن أدْرَكْنا ذلكَ؟ قالَ : تَكونون كأصْحابِ عيسى‏ : نُشِروا بالمَناشِيرِ ورُفِعوا علَى الخَشَبِ . مَوتٌ في طاعةٍ خَيْرٌ مِنْ حياةٍ في مَعْصيةٍ .1

329.The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'Verily the grinding stone of Islam will soon turn, so turn alongside the Qur'an wherever it turns. Soon the ruler and the Qur'an will combat each other and separate from each other. In fact there will be kings who will rule over you with one ruling and adhere to a different ruling for themselves. If you obey them, they will lead you astray. And if you disobey them, they will kill you.' They asked, 'O Messenger of Allah, what should we do if we witness such times?' He said, 'You must be like the companions of Jesus, who were cut into pieces with saws and were raised up on crosses. Dying in obedience [of Allah] is better than a life in disobedience.' 2
