Hadith 8
۞
(7) The same previous series of narrators from al-Hasan bin Ali bin Abu Hamza from al-Hasan as-Sariy that Abu Abdullah as-Sadiq (as) had said
“When I tell someone a tradition and he spreads it as he hears it from me, he will deserve to be cursed and repudiated.”
He meant that if that someone would spread the tradition among those who were not reliable or qualified. Imam as-Sadiq’s saying showed that he wanted some of the traditions to be kept secret and not to be spread.

قال أبو عبد الله: إنيّ لأُحدّث الرجُلّ الحديثَ فينطَلقُ فيُحدّثُ به عَني كما سمعَهُ فأَستَحلُّ به لَعنَهُ والبراءَةَ منه.
