290. And by this chain, from Muhammad Bin Suleyman, from Ibrahim Bin Abdullah Al-Sufy from Musa Bin Bakr Al-Wasity who said: Abu Al-Hassan said to me: ‘If I
were to distinguish my
Shites, I
would not find them except for the description (talk). And if I
were to test them, I
would not find them except as apostates. And if I
were to scrutinise them not even one out of a thousand would escape. And if I
were to screen them with a screening, there would not remain from them except the one who was for me
. They have been saying for a long time, leaning upon their couches, ‘We are the Shites of Ali
’. But rather, the Shiite of Ali
is the one who truthful in both his actions as well as his words’.
