3- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) أَنَّ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) شَهِدَ عِنْدَهُ رَجُلٌ وَقَدْ قُطِعَتْ يَدُهُ وَرِجْلُهُ بِشَهَادَةٍ فَأَجَازَ شَهَادَتَهُ وَقَدْ كَانَ تَابَ وَ[قَدْ] عُرِفَتْ تَوْبَتُهُ.
