Saying & Wisdom #323
٣٢٣. وَقَالَ (عليه السلام) وَقَدْ مَرَّ بِقَتْلَى الْخَوَارِجِ يَوْمَ النَّهْرَوَانِ: بُؤْساً لَكُمْ، لَقَدْ ضَرَّكُمْ مَنْ غَرَّكُمْ.
فَقِيلَ لَهُ: مَنْ غَرَّهُمْ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ؟ فَقَالَ: الشَّيْطَانُ الْمُضِلُّ، وَالْأَنْفُسُ الْأَمَّارَةُ بِالسُّوءِ، غَرَّتْهُمْ بِالْأَمَانِيِّ، وَفَسَحَتْ لَهُمْ فِي المَعَاصِيِ، وَوَعَدَتْهُمُ الْإِظْهَارَ، فَاقْتَحَمَتْ بِهِمُ النَّارَ.
English Translation
323. Amīr al-mu’minīn, peace be upon him, passed by the dead bodies of the Khārijites on the day of the battle of Nahrawān and said: Woe unto you! You have been harmed by him who deceived you.
He was asked: O’ Amīr al-mu’minīn, who deceived them? Then, he replied: Satan, the deceiver, and the inner spirit that leads one to evil deceived them through passions, made it easy for them to get into sins, promised them victory and eventually threw them into the Fire.
