28-63 (The author of the book narrated) my father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Sa’d ibn Abdullah quoted on the authority of Yaqoob ibn Yazid, on the authority of Obayd ibn Hilal that he had heard Abul Hassan Al-Ridha (s) say, “
I like that a believer be an innovator.” Obayd ibn Hilal asked the Imam (s), “What do you mean by innovator?” The Imam (s) replied, “I mean that he be one who understands things.”
63 - حَدَّثَنا أَبي رَضِىَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قالَ: حَدَّثَنا سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّه عَنْ يَعْقُوبِ بْنِ يَزِيد، عَن عُبِيْد بْنِ هِلالٍ قالَ
سَمِعتُ أَبَا الحَسَن الرِّضا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ يَقُولُ إِنّي أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ المُؤمِن مُحَدَّثاً قالَ قُلْتُ وَأيُّ شَي‏ءِ الُمحَدَّث قالَ: المُفهِمُ.
