Chapter on Disciplining and Testing a Child

وَ كَانَ جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ اَلْأَنْصَارِيُّ يَدُورُ فِي سِكَكِ اَلْأَنْصَارِ بِالْمَدِينَةِ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ " عَلِيٌّ خَيْرُ اَلْبَشَرِ فَمَنْ أَبَى فَقَدْ كَفَرَ يَا مَعَاشِرَ اَلْأَنْصَارِ أَدِّبُوا أَوْلاَدَكُمْ عَلَى حُبِّ عَلِيٍّ فَمَنْ أَبَى فَانْظُرُوا فِي شَأْنِ أُمِّهِ".
Jabir ibn Abdullah Al-Ansari used to walk through the streets of the Ansar in Medina, proclaiming, " Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام is the best of creation, and whoever denies it has disbelieved. O community of the Ansar, raise your children upon the love of Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام. If anyone refuses, then investigate the matter of his mother."
