John Shaqi

١٩٨. وَقَالَ (عليه ‏السلام) لَمَّا سَمِعَ قَوْلَ الْخَوَارِجِ ـ لَا حُكْمَ إِلَّا لِلهِ ـ : كَلِمَةُ حَقٍّ يُرَادُ بِهَا بَاطِلٌ.


Translation

198. When Amīr al-mu’minīn, peace be upon him, heard the slogan of the Khārijites: There is no verdict save of Allāh, he said: This sentence is true but it is interpreted wrongly.
