 وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِیلَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِی أَبِی عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ جَرِیرٍ الْبَجَلِیِّ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع جَاءَنِی ابْنُ عَمِّکَ کَأَنَّهُ أَعْرَابِیٌّ مَجْنُونٌ عَلَیْهِ إِزَارٌ وَ طَیْلَسَانٌ وَ نَعْلَاهُ فِی یَدِهِ فَقَالَ لَوْ أَنَّ قَوْماً یَقُولُونَ فِیکَ قُلْتُ لَهُ لَسْتَ عَرَبِیّاً قَالَ بَلَی قُلْتُ إِنَّ الْعَرَبَ لَا تُبْغِضُ عَلِیّاً ع قُلْتُ لَهُ لَعَلَّکَ مِمَّنْ یُکَذِّبُ بِالْحَوْضِ أَمَا وَ اللَّهِ لَئِنْ أَبْغَضْتَهُ ثُمَّ وَرَدْتَ عَلَی الْحَوْضِ لَتَمُوتَنَّ عَطَشاً.
14.  Imam Ja’far Sadiq  told the narrator, “Your cousin came to me like a mad Bedouin wearing torn clothes. He had worn a sheet over that and was carrying shoes in his hands. He told me that some people talk about you. I asked him whether he was not an Arab? He replied that he was indeed an Arab. I told him: Arabs do not hate Ali  and perhaps  you  are  among  those  who  deny  the  cistern  of Kauthar. Beware! If you reach Kauthar with this hatred, you will indeed die thirsty.”
