Al-Taqiyyah, Guarding and Cautiousness

15ـ عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ جَمِيلٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَرْوَانَ قَالَ قَالَ لِي أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) مَا مُنِعَ مِيثَمٌ رَحِمَهُ الله مِنَ التَّقِيَّةِ فَوَ الله لَقَدْ عَلِمَ أَنَّ هَذِهِ الآيَةَ نَزَلَتْ فِي عَمَّارٍ وَأَصْحَابِهِ إِلا مَنْ أُكْرِهَ وَقَلْبُهُ مُطْمَئِنٌّ بِالإيمانِ.
15. Ali has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Jamil from Muhammad ibn Marwan who has said the following: “Once Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام said to me, ‘What was it that prevented Maytham (may Allah have mercy on him) from al-Taqiyyah? He by Allah knew that this verse of the Holy Quran was revealed about ‘Ammar and his people, ‘...unless he is forced, but his heart is confident with belief...’” (Quran 16:106)
