أَتَى قَوْمٌ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) فَقَالُوا السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا رَبَّنَا فَاسْتَتَابَهُمْ فَلَمْ يَتُوبُوا فَحَفَرَ لَهُمْ حَفِيرَةً وَ أَوْقَدَ فِيهَا نَاراً وَ حَفَرَ حَفِيرَةً أُخْرَى إِلَى جَانِبِهَا وَ أَفْضَى مَا بَيْنَهُمَا فَلَمَّا لَمْ يَتُوبُوا أَلْقَاهُمْ فِي الْحَفِيرَةِ وَ أَوْقَدَ فِي الْحَفِيرَةِ الْأُخْرَى [نَاراً] حَتَّى مَاتُوا .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Hisham Bin Salim, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘A group of people came to Amir Al-Momineen, so they said, ‘Peace be upon you<sup>asws</sup>, ‘السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا رَبَّنَا’ O our Lord! So he told them to repent, but they did not repent. So he<sup>asws</sup> dug out a pit for them and ignited a fire in it, and dug out another pit to its side, and bore a hole between these two. So when they did not repent, he<sup>asws</sup> cast them into the pit, and ignited fire in the other pit, until they died’.
