Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘I have said four things which Allah has verified with verses He has revealed in His Book … I said: ‘He who is ignorant of something will oppose it, and He revealed: “Rather, they deny that whose knowledge they do not comprehend”.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : قلتُ أرْبَعاً أنزلَ اللّهُ تعالى تَصديقي بها في كِتابِهِ...قُلتُ : مَن جَهِلَ شيئا عادَاهُ ، فأنْزلَ اللّهُ: «بَلْ كَذَّبوا بِما لَم يُحيطوا بِعلْمِهِ».
