1. Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad al-Ash‘ari from MuAlia ibn Muhammad from abu Dawud al-Mustariqq who has said that
Dawad al-Jassas who said: I heard Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) say about the words of Allah, “Through the signs and with the star people do find their way.” (16:16) “The star is the Messenger of Allah (sw) and the signs are the Imams (a.s.)”
1ـ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الاشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُعَلَّى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِي دَاوُدَ الْمُسْتَرِقِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ الْجَصَّاصُ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ وَعَلاماتٍ وَبِالنَّجْمِ هُمْ يَهْتَدُونَ قَالَ النَّجْمُ رَسُولُ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) وَالْعَلامَاتُ هُمُ الائِمَّةُ (عَلَيْهم السَّلام )
