السيوطي:٤-١٢٧٥b

" عَن عَلِىٍّ: أنَّهُ أتَاهُ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْخَوَارِج فَقَالَ: {الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ وَجَعَلَ الظُّلُمَاتِ وَالنُّورَ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِرَبِّهِمْ يَعْدِلُونَ} أَلَيْسَ كَذلكَ؟ قَالَ: بَلَى. فَانْصَرَفَ عَنْهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: ارْجعْ. فَرَجَعَ فَقَالَ: آي قُلْ إِنَّمَا أنْزِلَتْ فِى أَهْل الكِتَابِ ".
