Pearl of Wisdom

to Abu al-'Abbas about the reciprocal invocation of Allah's curse, 'You cross your fingers with his fingers and say, ?O Allah! If so-and-so has disputed the truth and attested to a falsehood, then strike him with a bolt from the sky or some torment from You.' Then you exchange curses with him seventy times.?

Imam Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq [as]
al-Kafi, v. 2, p. 514, no. 4
