۞
1. Al-Husayn b. Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla b. Muhammad from Muhammad b. Jumhur from Hammad b. ’Isa from ’Abd al-Mu’min from Salim who has said that
he asked Abu Ja‘far (a.s.) regarding the meaning of the words of Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High. “We gave the Book as an inheritance to Our chosen servants, among whom some are unjust against their souls, some are moderate, and some are exceedingly virtuous by the permission of God. . .” (35:31) The exceedingly virtuous is the Imam (a.s.), the moderate ones are those who know the Imam (a.s.) and the unjust ones are those who do not know the Imam (a.s.).”
1ـ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُعَلَّى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُمْهُورٍ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمُؤْمِنِ عَنْ سَالِمٍ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) عَنْ قَوْلِ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ثُمَّ أَوْرَثْنَا الْكِتابَ الَّذِينَ اصْطَفَيْنا مِنْ عِبادِنا فَمِنْهُمْ ظالِمٌ لِنَفْسِهِ وَمِنْهُمْ مُقْتَصِدٌ وَمِنْهُمْ سابِقٌ بِالْخَيْراتِ بِإِذْنِ الله قَالَ السَّابِقُ بِالْخَيْرَاتِ الامَامُ وَالْمُقْتَصِدُ الْعَارِفُ لِلامَامِ وَالظَّالِمُ لِنَفْسِهِ الَّذِي لا يَعْرِفُ الامَامَ.
