Verses Criticizing the Rafidah and Their Treatment of the Prophet’s Companions

Do not think the Rafidah are people beyond reproach and kept by the devil

They set the months according to their own reckoning

And perhaps, as if for us there are not two months

And perhaps they shorten what is in their possession

One declares it sufficient, while the one who is lacking refuses

Indeed the Rafidah are worse than a horse's— (worse than the horse's...)

From every person, whether observing or lingering

They invoke the Prophet yet betray his companions

And they cast upon them accusations of injustice and aggression

They justified breaking from him and turned away from his companions

Two disputants before God, contradicting one another

So it is as if the people of the Prophet and his companions

Are a single spirit that manifests as two bodies

God is greatest
