Imam Sadiq (pbuh) stated:
“When Prophet Lut (pbuh) stated to his nation,
…’Would that I had power to suppress you or that I could betake myself to some powerful support.’
He wished he had Qa`em1 (hgr)’s power.
Thereby, he had reminded steadfastness of Imam Mahdi`s (hgr) companions!
Because each man of his companion, has power of forty men.
And their heart is stronger than iron…”
۱-Qa`em (it`s one of Imam Mahdi`s title that means he arises for truth)
