سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِنَّما جَزاءُ الَّذِينَ يُحارِبُونَ اللَّهَ وَ رَسُولَهُ وَ يَسْعَوْنَ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَساداً أَنْ يُقَتَّلُوا أَوْ يُصَلَّبُوا أَوْ تُقَطَّعَ أَيْدِيهِمْ إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ فَقُلْتُ أَيُّ شَيْءٍ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْحُدُودِ الَّتِي سَمَّى اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ قَالَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى الْإِمَامِ إِنْ شَاءَ قَطَعَ وَ إِنْ شَاءَ صَلَبَ وَ إِنْ شَاءَ نَفَى وَ إِنْ شَاءَ قَتَلَ قُلْتُ النَّفْيُ إِلَى أَيْنَ قَالَ يُنْفَى مِنْ مِصْرٍ إِلَى مِصْرٍ آخَرَ وَ قَالَ إِنَّ عَلِيّاً ( عليه السلام ) نَفَى رَجُلَيْنِ مِنَ الْكُوفَةِ إِلَى الْبَصْرَةِ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Jameel Bin Darraj who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about the Words of Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:5#h33"><a href="/books/quran:5#h33">[5:33]</a></a> But rather, the Recompense of those who wage war against Allah and His Rasool and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be killed or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off </span>– up to the end of the Verse’. So I said, ‘Which thing is upon them from these Penalties which Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic has Mentioned?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘That is upon the Imam<sup>asws</sup>, if he<sup>asws</sup> so desires to, he<sup>asws</sup> cuts, and if he<sup>asws</sup> so desires to he<sup>asws</sup> crucifies, and if he<sup>asws</sup> so desires to he<sup>asws</sup> exiles, and if he<sup>asws</sup> so desires to he<sup>asws</sup> kills’. I said, ‘The exiling is to where?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He would be exiled from a city to another city’. And he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Ali<sup>asws</sup> exiled two men from Al-Kufa to Al-Basra’.
