ʿAlī al-Riḍā (ʿa)

The rijāl books do not assess the Imams. They file narrators by which Imam they transmitted from, so this page gathers the chains rather than a verdict.

6 narrations 83% of them in Mishkāt al-Anwār

Counted from the narrations and chains this database holds — not a record of everything he transmitted.

Every narration whose chain this database resolves to him — the figure his seal draws. Resolved name by name, so a namesake of his is not among them.

“O' servants of God! Honor your elders, and visit your relations of kin. Nothing is better in associating with your relatives than not bothering them.”

hadith 979
Imam Reza (a.s) quoted on the authority of Ameer al-Momineen (a.s)
“Only donkeys turn down being honored.” They asked: “What does that mean?” He said: “Whoever does not smell a fragrant scent that is offered to him or does not sit in a meeting where people offer him a good place to sit is just like what was said (about the donkey).”
عن الرضا (عليه السلام) قال
قال أمير المؤمنين (عليه السلام): لا يأبى الكرامة إلا حمار، قيل له: ما معنى ذلك؟ فقال: ذلك في الطيب يعرض عليه، والتوسعة في المجلس، من أباهما كان كما قال.

This page is not assembled from entries, because the rijāl books write none for the Imams. It gathers the narrations and chains that name him.
