1- أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأشْعَرِيُّ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْكُوفِيِّ عَنْ عُبَيْسِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ عَنْ حُسَيْنِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ الْمِنْقَرِيِّ عَنْ هِشَامٍ الصَّيْدَنَانِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ عَنْ هَذِهِ الآيَةِ كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍ وَأَصْحابُ الرَّسِّ فَقَالَ بِيَدِهِ هَكَذَا فَمَسَحَ إِحْدَاهُمَا بِالأخْرَى فَقَالَ هُنَّ اللَّوَاتِي بِاللَّوَاتِي يَعْنِي النِّسَاءَ بِالنِّسَاءِ.
1. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from al-Hassan ibn Ali al-Kufiy from ‘Ubays ibn Hisham from Husayn ibn Ahmad al-Minqariy from Hisham al-Saydananiy who has said the following: “Once a man asked ‘ Abd Allah عليه السلام, about this verse of the holy Quran, ’Before them people of Noah and the dwellers of al-Rass rejected (the truth). . . (50: 12) He (the Imam) made a gesture with his hand and rubbed one hand against the other saying, ‘They were women with women (engaged in lesbianism).”’
