" عَنْ عَلىٍّ قَالَ: إِذَا خَرَجَتْ خَيْلُ السُّفْيَانىِّ إِلَى الْكُوفَةِ بَعَثَ فِى طَلَبِ أَهْلِ خُرَسَانَ، وَيَخْرُجُ أَهْلُ خُرسَانَ فِى طَلَبِ المَهْدِىِّ، فَيَلْتَقِى هُوَ وَالْهَاشِمِىُّ بِرَايَات سُودٍ عَلَى مَقْدِمَتهِ شُعَيْبُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ فَيَلْتَقِى هُوَ () والسُّفْيَانِىُّ بِبَابِ إِصْطخر، فَيَكُون بَيْنَهُمْ مَلْحَمَة عَظيمَةٌ، فَتَظْهَرُ الرَّايَاتُ السُّودُ وَتَهْرُبُ خَيْلُ السُّفْيَانِىِّ، فَعنْدَ ذَلكَ يَتَمَنَّى النَّاسُ الْمَهْدِىَّ وَيَطَلُبُونَهُ ".

"From Ali, he said: When the cavalry of al-Sufyani goes out toward Kufa, he will send to seek the people of Khurasan, and the people of Khurasan will go out seeking the Mahdi. He and the Hashimi will meet with black banners, and at their front is Shu'ayb ibn Salih. He will meet () and al-Sufyani at the Gate of Istakhr, and a great battle will take place between them. The black banners will prevail and the cavalry of al-Sufyani will flee. At that time the people will long for the Mahdi and seek him."
