«2»- مع، معاني الأخبار أَبِي عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ يَزِيدَ الرَّزَّازِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عليه السلام قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ عليه السلام يَا بُنَيَّ اعْرِفْ مَنَازِلَ الشِّيعَةِ عَلَى قَدْرِ رِوَايَتِهِمْ وَ مَعْرِفَتِهِمْ فَإِنَّ الْمَعْرِفَةَ هِيَ الدِّرَايَةُ لِلرِّوَايَةِ وَ بِالدِّرَايَاتِ لِلرِّوَايَاتِ يَعْلُو الْمُؤْمِنُ إِلَى أَقْصَى دَرَجَاتِ الْإِيمَانِ إِنِّي نَظَرْتُ فِي كِتَابٍ لِعَلِيٍّ عليه السلام فَوَجَدْتُ فِي الْكِتَابِ أَنَّ قِيمَةَ كُلِّ امْرِئٍ وَ قَدْرَهُ مَعْرِفَتُهُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى يُحَاسِبُ النَّاسَ عَلَى قَدْرِ مَا آتَاهُمْ مِنَ الْعُقُولِ فِي دَارِ الدُّنْيَا.

«2»- m', Ma'ani al-Akhbar: my father, from 'Ali b. Ibrahim, from Muhammad b. 'Isa, from Ibn Abi 'Umayr, from Yazid al-Razzaz, from Abu 'Abd Allah, peace be upon him, who said: Abu Ja'far, peace be upon him, said: My son, know the ranks of the Shi'a according to the measure of their narration and their knowledge; for knowledge is the discernment of the narration, and by discernments of narrations the believer rises to the furthest degrees of faith. I looked into a book of 'Ali, peace be upon him, and found in the book that the worth of every man and his measure is his knowledge. God, blessed and exalted, calls people to account according to the measure of what He has given them of intellects in the abode of this world.

«3»- سن، المحاسن الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ يَقْطِينٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْجَارُودِ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عليه السلام قَالَ: إِنَّمَا يُدَاقُّ اللَّهُ الْعِبَادَ فِي الْحِسَابِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عَلَى قَدْرِ مَا آتَاهُمْ مِنَ الْعُقُولِ فِي الدُّنْيَا.

«3»- sn, al-Mahasin: al-Husayn b. 'Ali b. Yaqtin, from Muhammad b. Sinan, from Abu al-Jarud, from Abu Ja'far, peace be upon him, who said: God is exacting with the servants in the reckoning on the Day of Resurrection only according to the measure of what He has given them of intellects in this world.

«4»- سن، المحاسن مُحَمَّدٌ الْبَرْقِيُّ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الْجَعْفَرِيِّ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللّٰه عليه و آله إِنَّا مَعَاشِرَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ نُكَلِّمُ النَّاسَ عَلَى قَدْرِ عُقُولِهِمْ.

«4»- sn, al-Mahasin: Muhammad al-Barqi, from Sulayman b. Ja'far al-Ja'fari, raising it, said: The Messenger of God — may God bless him and his family — said: We, the company of prophets, speak to people according to the measure of their intellects.

«5»- سن، المحاسن النَّوْفَلِيُّ وَ جَهْمُ بْنُ حَكِيمٍ الْمَدَائِنِيُّ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ آبَائِهِ عليهم السلام قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللّٰه عليه و آله إِذَا بَلَغَكُمْ عَنْ رَجُلٍ حُسْنُ حَالِهِ ١فَانْظُرُوا فِي حُسْنِ عَقْلِهِ فَإِنَّمَا يُجَازَى بِعَقْلِهِ.

«5»- sn, al-Mahasin: al-Nawfali and Jahm b. Hakim al-Mada'ini, from al-Sakuni, from Abu 'Abd Allah, from his forefathers, peace be upon them, who said: The Messenger of God — may God bless him and his family — said: When there reaches you concerning a man the goodness of his state (1), look into the goodness of his intellect; for he is recompensed only according to his intellect.

باب 4 علامات العقل و جنوده

Chapter 4: The signs of the intellect and its hosts

«1»- ل، الخصال أَبِي عَنْ سَعْدٍ عَنِ الْبَرْقِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللّٰه عليه و آله قُسِمَ الْعَقْلُ عَلَى ثَلَاثَةِ أَجْزَاءٍ فَمَنْ كَانَتْ فِيهِ كَمَلَ عَقْلُهُ وَ مَنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ فِيهِ فَلَا عَقَلَ لَهُ حُسْنُ الْمَعْرِفَةِ بِاللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ حُسْنُ الطَّاعَةِ لَهُ وَ حُسْنُ الصَّبْرِ عَلَى أَمْرِهِ.

«1»- l, al-Khisal: my father, from Sa'd, from al-Barqi, from his father, raising it, said: The Messenger of God — may God bless him and his family — said: The intellect is apportioned into three parts. Whoever has them in him, his intellect is complete; and whoever does not have them in him has no intellect: goodness of knowledge of God, Almighty and Glorious; goodness of obedience to Him; and goodness of patience upon His command.

بيان: لعل عد هذه الأشياء التي هي من آثار العقل من أجزائه على المبالغة

Elucidation: perhaps the counting of these things — which are among the effects of the intellect — as its parts is by way of hyperbole

(١)من فعل الصلاة و الصيام و الحجّ و ايتاء الزكاة و الصدقات و غيرها من المثوبات و القربات و قوله: فانظروا في حسن عقله. اي ان رأيتم عقله كاملا استدلّوا به على حسن افعاله و صحة اعماله و انه حقيق الركون إليه و الاعتماد عليه، و ان رأيتموه ناقصا فلا تغتروا باعماله و لا تركنوا إليه و استدلوا بقلة عقله علي نقصان ثوابه، فانه يجازي و يثاب علي قدر عقله من الكمال و النقصان.Of the performance of prayer, fasting, the pilgrimage, the giving of alms and charities, and other rewarded acts and means of nearness. And his words "look into the goodness of his intellect" — that is, if you see his intellect to be complete, infer from it the goodness of his acts and the soundness of his deeds, and that he is worthy to be relied upon and depended upon; and if you see it to be deficient, be not deceived by his deeds nor rely upon him, and infer from the smallness of his intellect the deficiency of his reward — for he is recompensed and rewarded according to the measure of his intellect in completeness and in deficiency.
