سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ ع يَقُولُ‌ لَمَّا وُلِدَ مَرْوَانُ عَرَضُوا بِهِ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص أَنْ يَدْعُوَ لَهُ فَأَرْسَلُوا بِهِ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ لِيَدْعُوَ لَهُ فَلَمَّا قَرَّبَتْهُ مِنْهُ قَالَ أَخْرِجُوا عَنِّي الْوَزَغَ ابْنَ الْوَزَغِ قَالَ زُرَارَةُ وَ لَا أَعْلَمُ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ وَ لَعَنَهُ.

324. Abaan, from Zurara who said: I heard Abu Ja’far (asws) saying; ‘When Marwan was born, they presented him to the Rasool Allah (saww) to supplicate for him. So they went with him to Ayesha so that (Prophet (saww) would) supplicate for him. So when she went near him, he (saww) said, ‘Take him away from me, the lizard son of the lizard’. Zurara (the narrator) said, ‘And I don’t know (more but) except that he (saww) said it, and cursed him (Marwan)’.

Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
