سورة النساء

Imam Baqir (peace be upon him): وَ لَوْ أَنَّهُمْ فَعَلُوا ما یُوعَظُونَ بِهِ [And if they had done what they were admonished with] was revealed concerning Ali (peace be upon him).

Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him): Abu Basir narrated from Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him) that concerning the verse: وَ لَوْ أَنَّا کَتَبْنا عَلَیْهِمْ أَنِ اقْتُلُوا أَنْفُسَکُمْ [And if We had prescribed for them: Kill yourselves] he said: "And submitted to the Imam." أَوِ اخْرُجُوا مِنْ دِیارِکُمْ [Or: Go forth from your homes], "for the pleasure of the Imam." ما فَعَلُوهُ إِلَّا قَلِیلٌ مِنْهُمْ وَ لَوْ [They would not have done it, except a few of them, and if]; "the people of opposition", فَعَلُوا ما یُوعَظُونَ بِهِ لَکانَ خَیْراً لَهُمْ وَ أَشَدَّ تَثْبِیتاً [had done what they were admonished with, it would have been better for them and more strengthening].
