3. [3/25] al-Kafi: A number of our companions from Ahmad b. Muhammad b. Khalid from Ismail b. Mihran from Abi Said al-Qammat and Salih b. Said from Aban b. Taghlib from Abi Ja’far عليه السلام, that he (the Imam) was asked a question about a matter and he answered it, so the man (who asked the question) said: the Fuqaha do not say this, he said: woe be upon you – and have you ever seen a Faqih?! A true Faqih is one who renounces the Dunya and covets the Akhera and holds onto the Sunnah of the prophet صلى الله عليه وآله

- Arabic and English texts preserved verbatim from pinned snapshot. Compiler introduction excluded where present; references mapped to fields; assessment whitespace trimmed; source-supplied English sanad retained separately. Search normalization is not applied to displayed text.
- verification Note
- Publisher content rights, translator attribution and structural checks, with independent publisher-page spot checks—not scholarly authentication or printed-edition collation. Historical text and scholarly reference strings may contain source errors; they are not silently corrected. No full commentary prose or inferred narrator identity is added. Muʿjam coverage, where present, is only the supplied excerpt, not the complete work.
