I asked `Ali, "Do you have the knowledge of any Divine Inspiration besides what is in Allah's Book?"
`Ali replied, "No, by Him Who splits the grain of corn and creates the soul. I don't think we have such
knowledge, but we have the ability of understanding which Allah may endow a person with, so that he
may understand the Quran, and we have what is written in this paper as well." I asked, "What is
written in this paper?" He replied, "(The regulations of) blood-money, the freeing of captives, and the
judgment that no Muslim should be killed for killing an infidel."
