SERMON 139
On the occasion of the Consultative
Committee
(after the death of `Umar ibn al-Khattab)
No one
preceded me in inviting people to truthfulness, in giving consideration to
kinship and practising generosity. So, hear my word and preserve what I
say.
Maybe you will see soon
after today that over this matter swords will be drawn and pledges will be
broken, so much so that some of you will become leaders of the people of
misguidance and followers of people of ignorance.
