1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from Rib’i ibn ‘Abd Allah from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “The Messenger of Allah would offer greeting of peace to women and they would respond to him. Amir al-Mu’ minin, Ali ibn abu Talib (a.s.) would offer greeting of peace to women but he disliked offering it to the young women. He would say, ‘I fear their voice may attract me and a feeling may cause me more harm than the reward for offering the greeting of peace.’”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
