Hadith 1123
۞
Hadith.1128 - It is narrated from Zayd al-Shahham that He said:
Imam Ja'far Al-Sadiq (as) said
"O’ Zayd, interact with the people through good character. Pray in their mosques, visit their sick, and attend their funerals. If you can, be the Imams and callers to prayer (mu'adhdhins), then do so. For if you do this, they will say,
'These are the Ja'fariyyah; may Allah (swt) have mercy on Ja'far, how well he trained his companions!'
But if you do otherwise, they will say,
'These are the Ja'fariyyah; may Allah (swt) do with Ja'far as he deserves for how badly he trained his companions!'"
1128 - وَ رَوَى عَنْهُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ زَيْدٌ اَلشَّحَّامُ
أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «يَا زَيْدُ خَالِقُوا اَلنَّاسَ بِأَخْلاَقِهِمْ صَلُّوا فِي مَسَاجِدِهِمْ وَ عُودُوا مَرْضَاهُمْ وَ اِشْهَدُوا جَنَائِزَهُمْ وَ إِنِ اِسْتَطَعْتُمْ أَنْ تَكُونُوا اَلْأَئِمَّةَ وَ اَلْمُؤَذِّنِينَ فَافْعَلُوا فَإِنَّكُمْ إِذَا فَعَلْتُمْ ذَلِكَ قَالُوا هَؤُلاَءِ اَلْجَعْفَرِيَّةُ رَحِمَ اَللَّهُ جَعْفَراً مَا كَانَ أَحْسَنَ مَا يُؤَدِّبُ أَصْحَابَهُ وَ إِذَا تَرَكْتُمْ ذَلِكَ قَالُوا هَؤُلاَءِ اَلْجَعْفَرِيَّةُ فَعَلَ اَللَّهُ بِجَعْفَرٍ مَا كَانَ أَسْوَأَ مَا يُؤَدِّبُ أَصْحَابَهُ.
