۞
3. It has been narrated that al-Sadiq, peace be upon him, said
The one who is born in (the fold of) Islam, is an Arab, and the one who enters into it after having grown up, is a migrant, and the one who was taken as a captive (of war) and was liberated (from slavery), he is a mawla. The mawla of a people is from themselves.
وروي أن الصادق عليه السلام قال
من ولد في الاسلام فهو عربي، ومن دخل فيه بعدما كبر فهو مهاجر، ومن سبي واعتق فهو مولى ومولى القوم من أنفسهم.
