Hadith 162

destroyed except the Nasibis (Hostile ones), and the breakers (of the allegiance), and the rejecters, and the obstinate ones. As for the one adhering with the Tawheed and the acknowledgment with Muhammad-saww, and, and he did not exit from the Religion, and did not manifest the injustice upon us-asws, and did not establish enmity to us-asws, and doubted in the caliphate, and did not recognise its rightful ones and its rulers, and did not recognise the Wilayah for us-asws, and did not establish enmity to us-asws, so that is a Muslim, the weak, there is hope for him of the Mercy of Allah-azwj, and there is fear upon him of his sins (whether they would be Forgiven or not)’. Aban said, ‘Suleym Bin Qays said, ‘On that day, there did not remain anyone from the Shias of Ali-asws except his face was beaming, and he was happy with his-asws talk, when Amir Al Momineen-asws commented on the matter and declared with it, and removed the covering, and left the Taqiyya (dissimulation). And there did not remain anyone from the reciters (of the Quran), from the ones who had doubted in the past, and had refrained from them (Abu Bakr, Umar and Usman), calling for the disavowment from them, and had feared and considered a sin, except he was convinced, and was insightful, and felt good, and left the doubt and the pausing. And there did not remain anyone around him-asws who had given his allegiance upon the aspect of what Usman had been pledged, and the past ones before him, except that abhorrence was seen in his face, and his affair was straitened, and disliked his-asws words. Then generality of them became insightful and they doubts were gone. Aban said, from Suleym, ‘I had not witnessed any day at all upon the heads of the public, more delight in their eyes than that day due to what from the covering was removed for the people, and what was manifested in it from the truth, and his-asws comments regarding the matter, and his-asws casting off the Taqiyya (dissimulation) and the concealment; and after than the Shias became numerous after that gathering since that day, and they spoke, and they had been few among the people of his-asws army. And the people became fighting alongside him-asws upon the knowledge of his-asws position from Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww, and after that gathering the Shias became the most majestic of the people and their greatest’, and in another report, ‘respectable of the people and their greatest, and that was after the event of (battle of) Al Naharwan, and he-asws was ordering with the preparation and the travelling to Muawiya. Then it was not long before he-asws was killed. Ibn Muljim-la, may Allah-azwj Curse him-la killed him-asws from behind, and his-la sword was poisoned before that’’. [57]
