He said: Abul Qasim Ja'far b. Muhammad reported to me from his father, from Sa'd b. Abdillah, from Ahmed b. Muhammad b. Isa, from al-Hasan b. Mahboob, from Abu Ayyub al-Khazzaz, from Muhammad b. Muslim, who reported that ABU JA'FAR MUHAMMAD B. ALI, peace be upon him said:
"People (who have discarded us) have no truth, nor any propriety, except that which they have learnt from us AHLUL BAIT(ASWS) . None from them can judge truly or with justice, unless he has taken its guidance from AMIRUL MO'MINEEN ALI B.ABI TALIB (ASWS), the key, the gate, the path blazer, the way.
And when they are confused in any matter, the fault is theirs if they commit an error; and if they decide rightly, the credit goes to ALI B.ABI TALIB (ASWS) (AS)."
