- .... And from Ibn Abbas: that after he was blinded, he passed by a gathering of Quraysh who were insulting Ali. He said to his companion: "What do I hear these people saying?" The companion replied: "They are insulting Ali." He said: "Take me back to them." So the companion took him back to them, and he said to them: "Which of you is insulting Allah?" They said: "Glory be to Allah! Who insults Allah?" He said: "And which of you has insulted the Messenger of Allah?" They said: "Whoever insults the Messenger of Allah has committed kufr." He said: "And which of you is insulting Ali?" They said: "Well, this one has indeed done so." He said: "Then I bear witness by Allah that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) say: 'Whoever insults Ali has insulted me, and whoever insults me has insulted Allah, and whoever insults Allah, Allah will cast him face-first into the Fire.'"
