قُلْتُ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) اللِّصُّ يَدْخُلُ فِي بَيْتِي يُرِيدُ نَفْسِي وَ مَالِي قَالَ اقْتُلْ فَأُشْهِدُ اللَّهَ وَ مَنْ سَمِعَ أَنَّ دَمَهُ فِي عُنُقِي .


Translation

Ahmad Bin Muhammad Al Kufy, from Muhammad Bin Ahmad Al Qalanisy, from Ahmad Bin Al Fazl, from Abdullah Bin Jabala, from Farara, from Anas, or Haysam Bin Al Bara’a who said, ‘I said to Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup>, ‘The thief enters into my house wanting my soul (murder me) and my wealth’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Kill, for I<sup>asws</sup> bear witness to Allah<sup>azwj</sup> and the one who hears that his blood is in my<sup>asws</sup> neck (responsibility)’.
