مَا شَهِدَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى رَجُلٍ بِكُفْرٍ قَطُّ إِلَّا بَاءَ بِهِ أَحَدُهُمَا إِنْ كَانَ شَهِدَ بِهِ عَلَى كَافِرٍ صَدَقَ وَ إِنْ كَانَ مُؤْمِناً رَجَعَ الْكُفْرُ عَلَيْهِ فَإِيَّاكُمْ وَ الطَّعْنَ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ .


Translation

Abu Ali Al Ashary, from Muhammad Bin Salim, from Ahmad Bin Al Nazar, from Amro Bin Shimr, from Jabir, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘A man will not testify of disbelief upon a man at all except it would come back with one of the two – if he had testified upon a disbeliever, he would be true, and it was against a <span class="iTxt">Momin</span>, the disbelief would come back upon him, therefore beware of reviling (insulting) the <span class="iTxt">Momineen</span>’.
