Hadith 466
۞
4. From the narrator of the previous Hadith from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Hassan ibn Mahbub from ‘Amr ibn abu al-Miqdam from Jabir who has said the following.
“I heard imam abu Ja’far (a.s.) saying, ‘Only those who know Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High, and worship Him. It is such people who know Him and know the Imam from the family of the Holy Prophet (sw). Those who do not know Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High, and do not know the Imam from us, Ahlul Bayt, such people only know and worship something other than Allah just like that in error.”
4ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ أَبِي الْمِقْدَامِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ إِنَّمَا يَعْرِفُ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَيَعْبُدُهُ مَنْ عَرَفَ الله وَعَرَفَ إِمَامَهُ مِنَّا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَمَنْ لا يَعْرِفِ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَلا يَعْرِفِ الامَامَ مِنَّا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ فَإِنَّمَا يَعْرِفُ وَيَعْبُدُ غَيْرَ الله هَكَذَا وَالله ضَلالاً.
