قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع فِي كَلَامٍ لَهُ اتَّقُوا شِرَارَ النِّسَاءِ وَ كُونُوا مِنْ خِيَارِهِنَّ عَلَى حَذَرٍ وَ إِنْ أَمَرْنَكُمْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ فَخَالِفُوهُنَّ كَيْ لَا يَطْمَعْنَ مِنْكُمْ فِي الْمُنْكَرِ.
English translationMuhammad Sarwar
5. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah from his father from those whom he has mentioned from al- Husayn ibn al-Mukhtar who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that ’Amir al-Mu’minin (a.s.), has said in one of his speeches, ‘You must stay away from wicked women and remain on your guard with the good ones. If they command you to do good things oppose them so that they will not expect you to listen to their unlawful demand.’”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar·Thaqalayn link·The Arabic above is the original.
