Hadith 321

(The book) ‘Al Kharaij Wa Al Jaraih’ – It is reported from Sadeyr, ‘Kaseer Al-Nawa entered to see Abu Ja’far-asws and said, ‘Al-Mugheira Bin Saeed claims that there is an Angel with you-asws, making you-asws recognise the Momin from the Kafir’ – in a lengthy speech. When he went out, he-asws said: ‘He is not, except of wicked birth’. And this talk (of Imam-asws) was heard by a group from the people of Al-Kufa. They said, ‘We shall go until we ask about Kaseer, for this is bad news’. We went to the tribe which he was among them. We were pointed to a righteous old woman. We said to her, ‘We are asking about Abu Ismail’. She said, ‘Kaseer? ’ We said, ‘Yes’. She said, ‘Are you intending to get him married? ’ We said, ‘Yes’. She said, ‘Do not do it, for by Allah-azwj, for by Allah-azwj I had given birth to him in that house as fourth of the four from the adultery’ – and she indicated to a room from the rooms of the house’’.
