قب، المناقب لابن شهرآشوب قَالَ بَعْضُ الْخَوَارِجِ لِهِشَامِ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ‏ الْعَجَمُ تَتَزَوَّجُ فِي الْعَرَبِ (The book) ‘Al Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashub – ‘One of the Kharijites said to Hisham Bin Al-Hakam, ‘The non-Arab marries among the Arabs’. قَالَ نَعَمْ He said, ‘Yes’. قَالَ فَالْعَرَبُ تَتَزَوَّجُ فِي قُرَيْشٍ He said, ‘The Arab marrying into Qureysh?’ قَالَ نَعَمْ He said, ‘Yes’.

قَالَ فَقُرَيْشٌ تَتَزَوَّجُ فِي بَنِي هَاشِمٍ He said, ‘Qureysh marrying into the clan of Hashim -as ?’ قَالَ نَعَمْ He said, ‘Yes’.

فَجَاءَ الْخَارِجِيُّ إِلَى الصَّادِقِ ع فَقَصَّ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَ سَمِعَهُ مِنْكَ The Kharijite came to Al-Sadiq -asws and narrated the story to him -asws , then said, ‘Can I hear it from you -asws ?’ فَقَالَ ع نَعَمْ فَقَدْ قُلْتُ ذَاكَ He -asws said: ‘Yes, I -asws have said that!’ قَالَ الْخَارِجِيُّ فَهَا أَنَا ذَا قَدْ جِئْتُكَ خَاطِباً The Kharijite said, ‘So here I am having come to you -asws as a proposer!’ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع إِنَّكَ لَكُفْوٌ فِي دِينِكَ وَ حَسَبُكَ فِي قَوْمِكَ وَ لَكِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ صَانَنَا عَنِ الصَّدَقَاتِ وَ هِيَ أَوْسَاخُ أَيْدِي النَّاسِ فَنَكْرَهُ أَنْ نُشْرِكَ فِيمَا فَضَّلَنَا اللَّهُ بِهِ مَنْ لَمْ يَجْعَلِ اللَّهُ لَهُ مِثْلَ مَا جَعَلَ لَنَا Abu Abdullah -asws said to him: ‘You are a match in your religion and it suffices you in your people, but Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic has Protected us -asws from the charities, and these are filth of hands of the people.

Thus, in what Allah -azwj had Merited us -asws with, we -asws dislike to participate someone Allah -azwj has not Made for him similar to what He -azwj has Made for us -asws !’ فَقَامَ الْخَارِجِيُّ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ بِاللَّهِ مَا رَأَيْتُ رَجُلًا مِثْلَهُ رَدَّنِي وَ اللَّهِ أَقْبَحَ رَدٍّ وَ مَا خَرَجَ مِنْ قَوْلِ صَاحِبِهِ The Kharijite stood up and he was saying, ‘By Allah -azwj , I have not seen a man like him -asws !
