Arabic text

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ مَاجِيلَوَيْهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَمِّي عَنِ اَلْمُعَلَّى بْنِ خُنَيْسٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ ع يَقُولُ لَيْسَ اَلنَّاصِبُ مَنْ نَصَبَ لَنَا أَهْلَ اَلْبَيْتِ لِأَنَّكَ لاَ تَجِدُ أَحَداً يَقُولُ أَنَا أُبْغِضُ مُحَمَّداً وَ آلَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ لَكِنَّ اَلنَّاصِبَ مَنْ نَصَبَ لَكُمْ وَ هُوَ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّكُمْ تَتَوَالَوْنَا وَ تَتَبَرَّءُونَ مِنْ أَعْدَائِنَا وَ قَالَ ع مَنْ أَشْبَعَ عَدُوّاً لَنَا فَقَدْ قَتَلَ وَلِيّاً لَنَا.

Translation

Mohammed bin Ali Majilwayh narrated to us from his uncle Mohammed bin Abi al-Qasim from Mohammed bin Ali al-Kufi from Ibn Faddhal from al-Mu’alla bin Khunais that he heard Abu Abdullah (a) saying: The Nasibi is not he who declares antagonism against us; the Prophet’s household. You cannot meet any person who declares that he hates Mohammed and his family openly. The Nasibi is he who provokes hostility against you while he knows that you support us and disavow our enemies. He (a) also said: He who gratifies one of our enemies is killing one of our disciples.
