1) The chain of narrators is not the only factor that determines the authentici ty of a narration/speech.

Rather, other factors such as the acceptance of the hi storians and scholars as well as the authenticity of the context play a major ro le in that decision. Therefore, it is not correct to only view the narration and its authenticity/reliability from that particular perspective. 2) The speech of Shaqshaqiya has been narrated in 4 different chains, and this factor strengthens the reliability of the narration since it explicitly shows th at the speech was well known by more than one group of persons at that time. 3) One of Khutbas chain of narrators is the following: 1) Mohammad 2) Hassan bin Ali al-Za'farani 3) Mohammad bin Zakariya al-Qallabi 4) Ya'qub bin Ja'far bin Sulayman 5) Ja'far bin Sulayman 6) Sulayman 7) Ibn-Abbas This chain is mentioned by Ibn-Taoos in his book "al-Tara'ef" 4) Another chain is the following: 1) Al-haffar 2) Abu-l-Qassem al-Du'lubi 3) Ubay 4) Du'bul 5) Muhammad bin Salama al-Shammi 6) Zurara bin a'yun 7) Abi Ja'far Muhammad bin Ali pbut) 8) Ibn-Abbas 9) Also, Imam Muhammad bin Ali (pbut) from his father from his grandfather (pbu t) This could be found in al-Amaali for Sheikh Al Toosi. 5) The narrations of 'akramah which are considered weak are those which support his thoughts and beliefs, for it is not normal for a person to attack his own b elief and weaken it. Therefore, the scholars consider that whatever a weak narra tor mentions in opposition to his belief as reliable to a certain extent. 6) The Khutba is very famous and well known in both Shi'ite and Sunni sources a nd there are many commentaries written from both parties on this khutba. This al so strengthens the reliability of the Khutba. Among those whom mentioned it in Sunni texts are the following: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) Abul Fadhl al-Midani (d: 518 hejri) in Majma'a al-Amthaal page 383.
