Hadith 564
۞
24. My father (RA) said: ``Abd Allah ibn Ja`far al-Himyari said: Ahmad ibn Muhammad sid, on the authority of `Ali ibn al-Hakam, on the authority of Fudayl, on the authority of Abu `Ubaydah who said that Abu Ja`far al-Baqir (AS) said to me
O Abu `Ubaydah! Beware of quarrelers and those who relate lies about us. Verily, they have left what they were ordered to learn and seek from the knowledge of Heaven. O Abu `Ubaydah! Mould people with morals and pursue them with their deeds. Verily, we never consider a person to be wise until he recognizes the tone of speech. He (AS) then recited this verse: And most certainly you can recognize them by the tone of (their) speech.
24 - أبي رحمه الله، قال: حدثنا عبد الله بن جعفر الحميري، قال: حدثنا أحمد بن محمد، عن علي بن الحكم، عن فضيل، عن أبي عبيدة، عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام قال
قال لي: يا أبا عبيدة إياك وأصحاب الخصومات والكذابين علينا فإنهم تركوا ما أمروا بعلمه وتكلفوا علم السماء، يا أبا عبيدة خالقوا الناس بأخلاقهم وزايلوهم بأعمالهم، إنا لا نعد الرجل فينا عاقلا حتى يعرف لحن القول ثم قرأ هذه الآية (ولتعرفنهم في لحن القول) .
