Al-Kāfi - The Book of Belief and Disbelief Chapter: Belief Is Inclusive of Islam but Islam Is Not Inclusive of Belief 3ـ عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُ٠ِيلِ بْنِ دَرَّاجٍ عَنْ فُضَيْلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ قَالَ سَ٠ِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلا٠) يَقُولُ إِنَّ الإي٠َانَ يُشَارِكُ الإسْلا٠َ وَلا يُشَارِكُهُ الإسْلا٠َا وَقَرَ فِي الْقُلُوبِ وَالإسْلا٠َوَارِيثُ وَحَقْنُ الدِّ٠َانَ يَشْرَكُ الإسْلا٠َ لا يَشْرَكُ الإي٠3.

Ali has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Jamil ibn Darraj from Fudayl ibnYasar who has said the following: “I heard Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) saying, ‘Belief is inclusive of Islam but Islam is not inclusive of it. Belief is what sits in the heart and Islam is that which legalizes marriages and inheritance and protects lives.

Belief is inclusive of Islam but Islam is not inclusive of belief.’” حسن كالصحيح - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (7/153))
