Marriage of Fanatic (Enemy of ‘A’immah) and Skeptics

14- أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنِ ابْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ دَخَلَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ (عَلَيْهِما السَّلام) فَقَالَ إِنَّ امْرَأَتَكَ الشَّيْبَانِيَّةَ خَارِجِيَّةٌ تَشْتِمُ عَلِيّاً (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فَإِنْ سَرَّكَ أَنْ أُسْمِعَكَ مِنْهَا ذَاكَ أَسْمَعْتُكَ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَإِذَا كَانَ غَداً حِينَ تُرِيدُ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ كَمَا كُنْتَ تَخْرُجُ فَعُدْ فَاكْمُنْ فِي جَانِبِ الدَّارِ قَالَ فَلَمَّا كَانَ مِنَ الْغَدِ كَمَنَ فِي جَانِبِ الدَّارِ فَجَاءَ الرَّجُلُ فَكَلَّمَهَا فَتَبَيَّنَ مِنْهَا ذَلِكَ فَخَلَّى سَبِيلَهَا وَكَانَتْ تُعْجِبُهُ.
14. Ahmad ibn Muhammad has narrated from ibn Faddal from ibn Bukayr from Zurarah who has said the following: “Abu Ja‘far عليه السلام, has said, ‘Once a man came to Ali ibn al-Husayn عليه السلام, and said, “Your wife from al-Shayban people is of Kharijiy sect who vilify Ali عليه السلام. If you like I can manage for you to hear what she says.” He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, I agree.’ He (man) said, ‘Tomorrow as you come out of your home as you normally do, wait on the side of the house.’ Next day he (the Imam) waited on the side of the house and the man came. He spoke to her and it (vilification) became clear from her. He (the Imam) divorced her although he liked her quite well.’”
