1-79 (The compiler of the book narrated) that his father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Ahmad ibn Idris quoted on the authority of Abu Sa’id al-Adamy, on the authority of Al-Hassan ibn al-Hassan al-Lu’lu’ee, on the authority of Ibn Abi Umayr, on the authority of Abdullah ibn Jundab, on the authority of Abi Umar al-Ajami that Abu Abdullah told him
“O Abu Umar! Indeed nine-tenths of religion is in the concealing of faith. Whoever doesn’t practice the concealing of faith has no religion. There is concealing of faith in everything except in drinking wine and wiping the feet from over foot-wear .”
1-79 حدثنا أبي رضي الله عنه قال: حدثنا أحمد بن إدريس قال: حدثني أبوسعيد الآدمي قال: حدثنا الحسن بن الحسين اللؤلؤي، عن ابن أبي عمير، عن عبد الله بن جندب، عن أبي عمر العجمي قال
قال لي أبوعبد الله عليه السلام: يا أبا عمر إن تسعة أعشار الدين في التقية، ولا دين لمن لا تقية له، والتقية في كل شيء إلا في شرب النبيذ والمسح على الخفين
