17, h 14 Ali ibn Muhammad has narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from 'Umar ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz from Hisham ibn Salim, Hammed ibn 'Uthman and others who have said the following. "Abu 'Abdallah (a.s.) said, 'My Hadith is the Hadith of my father. The Hadith of my father is the Hadith of my grandfather. The Hadith of my grandfather is the Hadith of Imam Husayn. The Hadith of Imam al-Husayn is the Hadith of Imam al- Hassan.

The Hadith of Imam al- Hassan is the Hadith of Imam Ali (a.s.). The Hadith of Imam Ali is the Hadith of the holy Prophet (s.a.) and the Hadith of the holy Prophet is the words of Allah, the Majestic, the Glorious.'" H 152, Ch. 17, h 15 A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn al- Hassan ibn abu Khalid Shaynula who has said the following.

"I said to abu Ja'far (a.s.), 'May Allah take my soul in your service, our shaikhs have narrated Hadith from Imam abu Ja'far and from Imam abu 'Abdallah (a.s.) and at that time because of fear Taqiyah, concealment was sever. They concealed their books and did narrate from them. When they died their books came to us.'" The Imam said, "You may narrate from them because they contain the truth." Chapter 18 : Chapter on Taqlid, following the opinions of someone H 153, Ch.

18, h 1 A number of our people has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid from 'Abdallah ibn Yahya from ibn Muskan from abu Basir who has said the following. "I asked Imam abu 'Abdallah (a.s.) about the verse of the holy Quran that says, 'They (unconditionally) obeyed the rabbis and the monks and worshipped the Messiah, son of Mary, as they should have obeyed God. . . . (9:31)'. The Imam replied, "By Allah they did not call people to worship them.

If they had done so people would not have accepted it. The Rabbis and monks made unlawful things lawful for them and the lawful things as lawful. And in this way they worshipped them unintentionally." H 154, Ch. 18, h 2 Ali ibn Muhammad has narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ibrahim ibn Muhammad al- Hamdani from Muhammad ibn 'Ubayda who has said the following.

"Abu al-Hassan (a.s.) said, 'O Muhammad, Do you observe Taqlid more strictly or the group of Murji'a?' Muhammad ibn 'ubaydah has said, "I replied, 'They observe Taqlid and we observe Taqlid.' The Imam then said, "I did not ask you about this." I did not have any answer other than the first one.
