'''Al-Khutba al-Shiqshiqiyya''' (Arabic: الخطبة الشقشقیة) is one of the best-known sermons in [[Nahj al-balagha]]. In this sermon, [[Imam 'Ali (a)]] depicts the periods of the [[Rashidun 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]], [[Qasitun]] and [[Mariqun]], 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.
