Note 357 — ABU AL-HUSN AND HIS SLAVE-GIRL TAWADDUD.[281]
Richard Francis Burton translation
The Sunnis hold that the “Anbiyá” (= prophets, or rather announcers of Allah’s judgments) were not sinless. But this dogma is branded as most irreverent and sinful by the Shi’ahs or Persian “followers of Ali,” who make capital out of this blasphemy and declare that if any prophet sinned he sinned only against himself.
