84. It is reported that Jabir heard two of his followers cursing a man who was unknown to him, so he also cursed him. The two men asked him, 'How can you curse a man without clear evidence of his error?' Jabir replied, 'What clearer proof shall I need than the agreement of two of you on cursing him?'; Jitali, Sharh al-Nuniyah, II, 39; Darjini, Tabaqat., 205; Shammakhi, Siyar., 73.

85. It is reported that Dumam b. al-Saib, one of the early leading scholars of the Ibadhi school, was sitting with a (waliy) believer when a certain man was mentioned, and Dhumam's companion spoke ill of him. Dumam said, 'Hush, do not do that.' The man said, 'May God be dissociated from him.' ( ) So Dumam said, 'May God be dissociated from you'. ( ). Then the man repented of what he had said and Dumam asked God forgiveness for him." Ibid., 87-88; Darjini, Tabaqat., 235
