قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) إِنَّمَا يُؤْمَرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَ يُنْهَى عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ مُؤْمِنٌ فَيَتَّعِظُ أَوْ جَاهِلٌ فَيَتَعَلَّمُ وَ أَمَّا صَاحِبُ سَوْطٍ أَوْ سَيْفٍ فَلَا .
Translation
And by this chain, said, ‘Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘But rather, a Believer would be enjoined with the good and forbid from the evil, so he would heed advice, or if ignorant, so he would learn, and as for the owner of the whip or a sword, so no!’.
