Qom in Traditions
Much praise has been mentioned in traditions related to Imam as-Sadiq (A.S). He said:
“Above Qom there is an angel flapping his two wings. No arrogant intends to offend it (Qom), unless Allah will make him melt away like salt being melted in water.”
He also said:
“If you are afflicted with distress and suffering, you are to resort to Qom because it is the refuge of the Fatimites and the resort of the believers.”
Imam Musa al-Kadhim (A.S) said:
“Qom is the shelter of Muhammad’s progeny and the resort of their Shia.”
He also said in another tradition, which was as an astonishing prediction:
“There will be a man from Qom, who will invite people to the truth and great masses of people will join him. They will not be shaken by the most violent storms.”
This tradition has become real after the Islamic revolution under the leadership of Imam Khomeini (may Allah be pleased with him).
There is another tradition of Imam as-Sadiq (A.S) deserving to be pondered on. Imam as-Sadiq (A.S) said:
“The ground of Qom is sacred. Its people are from us and we are from them. No arrogant tries to offend them, unless his punishment will be hastened to him as long as they do not betray their brothers. If they do that, then Allah will subject them to the offenses of the arrogants.”
There is another tradition related to Imam as-Sadiq (A.S) talking about Fatima al-Ma’ssooma (A.S). He said:
“We have a sanctum. It is the village of Qom, in which a woman from my progeny will be buried. Her name will be Fatima.”
