A man (from Khawarij) and a
woman referred to Ameerul Momineen (a.s.) in their dispute. Suddenly that
Khariji man behaved harshly with that lady in the presence of His Eminence. His
Eminence said: “Get away” Suddenly his head changed into that of a dog.
Someone
asked: “O Ameerul Momineen (a.s.), you scolded this Khariji and this happened,
then what prevents you from destroying Muawiyah?” He replied: “What do you say?! If I want
to bring Muawiyah from Shaam, I will pray to God to bring Muawiyah here; but we
are treasurers of secrets of expediency in the matters of creatures, and not
treasurers of gold and silver. We are slaves subject to the commands of the
Lord and we act by His permission.”

and body of human being; Behaarul Anwaar,
