٣٢٢. وَرُوِيَ أَنَّهُ (عليه السلام) لَمَّا وَرَدَ الْكُوفَةَ قَادِماً مِنْ صِفِّينَ مَرَّ بِالشِّبَامِيِّينَ فَسَمِعَ بُكَاءَ النِّسَاءِ عَلَى قَتْلَى صِفِّينَ، وَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِ حَرْبُ بْنُ شُرَحْبِيلَ الشِّبَامِيِّ، وَكَانَ مِنْ وُجُوهِ قَوْمِهِ. فَقَالَ (عليه السلام): لَهُ أَ تَغْلِبُكُمْ نِسَاؤُكُمْ عَلَى مَا أسْمَعُ؟ أَ لَا تَنْهَوْنَهُنَّ عَنْ هذَا الرَّنِينِ،
322. When Amīr al-mu’minīn, peace be upon him, returned to Kūfah from Ṣiffīn he passed by the residences of the Shibāmites (who belonged to the tribe of Shibām) and heard the women weeping over those killed in Ṣiffīn. At that time a Shibāmite, Ḥarb ibn Shuraḥbil ash-Shibāmi, who was one of the nobles of those people, came to him, and Amīr al-mu’minīn, peace be upon him, said to him: Do your women have control over you as regards the weeping that I hear? Do you not refrain them from this crying?
