58. We were told by Ja’far bin Muhammed bin Masrur, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: We were told by Hussain bin Muhammed ibn ‘Amer, from his paternal uncle, Abdullah bin ‘Amer, from Muhammed bin Ziyad, from Saif bin ‘Umayra, that he said: Al-Sadiq, Ja’far bin Muhammed, peace be upon them both, said:

The one who does not care about what he says and what is said about him, is an associate of Shaytan. The one who does not care that people consider him to be a causer of harm, is an associate of Shaytan. The one who is fondly in love with the forbidden and lust for fornication, is an associate of Shaytan. He, peace be upon him, then said: Indeed, one who is begotten from fornication has signs: one of them is hatred towards us, the Household; a second of them is that he hankers for that from which he was created; a third of them is to take religion lightly; and a fourth of them is a bad manner of attendance with people, and that he does not attend badly with his brothers except with the one who is begotten from other than the mattress of his father or whose mother became pregnant with during her menstrual period.
