[1562/1] الكافي: أبوعلي الاشعري، عن محمد بن عبدالجبار، عن صفوان، عن إسحاق بن عمار، عن أبي بصير، عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام قال: نزل القرآن أربعة أرباع: ربع فينا وربع في عدونا وربع سنن وأمثال وربع فرائض وأحكام
[1562/1] al-Kafi: Abu Ali al-Ash’ari from Muhammad b. Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan from Ishaq b. Ammar from Abi Basir from Abi Ja’far عليه السلام who said: The Qur’an came down as four fourths: A quarter concerning us, a quarter concerning our enemies, a quarter is Sunan (Precedents) and Amthāl (Similitudes), and a quarter is Farāʾiḍ (Obligations) and Aḥkām (Rulings)
Shaykh Asif al-Mohseni
Muʿjam al-Aḥādīth al-Muʿtabara
al-Muhsini: It is not far-fetched that the phrase ‘concerning us’ includes (apart from the twelve Imams) the previous prophets, successors, and even the generality of saints and callers to Allah the Elevated. Similarly, it is not far-fetched that the phrase ‘our enemies’ refers in an absolute sense to all the Imams of Disbelief, enemies of Allah and callers to destruction and rebellion throughout history. Additionally, a significant proportion of the Qur’an has to do with Tawhid (monotheism) and His attributes together with the resurrection and Day of Judgment, but the report does not refer to them. Likewise to the signs in creation and others. Furthermore, the Faraidh (obligations) and Ahkam (rulings) are less than a quarter of the Qur’an.
