'''Al-Shiqshiqīyya Sermon''' (Arabic: {{inlineArabic|الخطبة الشقشقیة}}) is one of the best-known sermons in ''[[Nahj al-balagha]]''. In this sermon, [[Imam 'Ali (a)]] depicts the periods of the [[first three Caliphs]], and criticizes their performances, challenging the legitimacy of their [[caliphate]]. He also points out that people rushed into his house in order to pledge their [[allegiance]] to him. He refers to [[Nakithun]] (Oath-breakers), [[Qasitun]] (the cruel)و and [[Mariqun]] (Khawarij), and he finally mentions the reason why he accepted to undertake the power. In most versions of ''Nahj al-balagha'', the sermon is the third sermon.
