5ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ حَسَنِ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ عَنْ يَزِيدَ الصَّائِغِ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام)
رَجُلٌ عَلَى هَذَا الأمْرِ إِنْ حَدَّثَ كَذَبَ وَإِنْ وَعَدَ أَخْلَفَ وَإِنِ ائْتُمِنَ خَانَ مَا مَنْزِلَتُهُ قَالَ هِيَ أَدْنَى الْمَنَازِلِ مِنَ الْكُفْرِ وَلَيْسَ بِكَافِرٍ.
5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hassan ibn ‘Atiyyah from Yazid al-Sa’igh who has said the following:
“Once I said to Abu ‘Abdillah ‘A man who is in this cause (belief of Shi’a Muslims), but the words he speaks are lies, disregards his promise, and violates his trust. What is his value?’ The Imam said, ‘It is very close to disbelief but he is not an unbeliever.’”
