Hadith.5864 - Muhammad ibn Sinan narrated from Talhah ibn Zayd, who said
"I heard Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as), peace be upon him, say: 'One who acts without insight is like a traveler walking off the path. The faster he moves, the farther he becomes from the correct way.'"
5864 - وَ رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ اَلصَّادِقِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَقُولُ : "اَلْعَامِلُ عَلَى غَيْرِ بَصِيرَةٍ كَالسَّائِرِ عَلَى غَيْرِ اَلطَّرِيقِ فَلاَ تَزِيدُهُ سُرْعَةُ اَلسَّيْرِ مِنَ اَلطَّرِيقِ إِلاَّ بُعْداً".
