Bihar Al-Anvar: V.44, P. 329
أَنِّی لَمْ أَخْرُجْ أَشِراً وَ لَا بَطِراً وَ لَا مُفْسِداً وَ لَا ظَالِماً وَ إِنَّمَا خَرَجْتُ لِطَلَبِ الْإِصْلَاحِ فِی أُمَّةِ جَدِّی ص أُرِیدُ أَنْ آمُرَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَ أَنْهَى عَنِ الْمُنْکَرِ
همانا من براى سرکشى و خود پسندی و تکبر و فساد کردن و ظلم نمودن خارج نشدم [قیام نکردم] و به تحقیق که من برای اصلاح در میان امت جدم قیام کردم و می خواهم امر به معروف و نهی از منکر کنم...
