جهم بن حكيم: قال النجاشي: " جهم بن حكيم، كوفي، ثقة، قليل الحديث، له كتاب، ذكره ابن بطة، وخلط إسناده، تارة قال: حدثنا أحمد بن محمد بن خالد البرقي عنه، وتارة قال: حدثنا أحمد بن محمد، عن أبيه، عنه ". أقول: الظاهر اتحاده مع ما ذكره الشيخ أولا، أو ثانيا، والوجه فيه ظاهر، إذا الاختلاف بين النجاشي والشيخ إنما هو في اسم والد جهم، من جهة التصغير والتكبير. ومن المحتمل اتحاد من ذكره الشيخ أولا مع من ذكره ثانيا، وإن كان الاتحاد خلاف ظاهر كلامه قدس سره.
