"عن كَثِيرِ بِنْ نَمِرٍ قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ بِرِجَالٍ إلَى عَلِىٍّ فَقَالَ: إِنَّى رَأَيْتُ هَؤُلَاءِ يَتَوَاعَدُونك ( ) فَفَرُّوا وَأَخَذْتُ هَذَا، قَالَ: أَفَأَقْتُلُ مَنْ لَمْ يَقْتُلْنِى قَالَ: إِنَّهُ سَبَّكَ قَالَ: سُبَّهُ أَوْدَعْ".

"From Kathir ibn Namir, who said: A man came with some men to 'Ali and said: I saw these men plotting against you (), so they fled and I seized this one. He said: Shall I kill the one who has not killed me? He said: He reviled you. He said: Let him revile you, or leave him."
