SERMON 183

One of the Kharijites al-Burj
ibn Mus'hir at-Ta'i raised the slogan, "Command behoves only
Allah" in such a way that Amir al-mu'minin heard it. On
hearing it he said:

Keep quite, may Allah
make you ugly, O' you with broken tooth. Certainly, by Allah, when
truth became manifest even then your personality was weak and your
voice was lose. But when wrong began to shout loudly you again
sprouted up like the horns of a kid.
