الإمام الجواد (عليه السَّلام ):
و كُلُّ اُمّةٍ قد رَفَعَ اللّهُ عَنهُم عِلمَ الكتابِ حِينَ نَبَذُوهُ و وَلاّهُم عَدُوَّهُم حينَ تَوَلَّوهُ ، و كانَ مِن نَبذِهِمُ الكتابَ أن أقاموا حُروفَهُ و حَرَّفُوا حُدودَهُ ، فهُم يَروُونَهُ و لا يَرعُونَهُ ، و الجُهّالُ يُعجِبُهُم حِفظُهُم للرِّوايَةِ ، و العُلَماءُ يَحزُنُهُم تَركُهُم للرِّعايَةِ.

As for the past nations, when any of them disregarded their scripture, God took away from them the knowledge of their scripture, and when they took their enemies as allies, God gave mastery to their enemies over them. And their disregarding of the scripture was such that they protected its wordings but distorted its limits; they recited and narrated it without observing its limits; the ignorant were impressed by how attentive they were in narrating it but the scholars grieved over their lack of compliance with its limits.

Abū Jaʿfar, Muḥammad b. Yaʿqūb b. Isḥāq al-Kulaynī Al-Rāzī (Arabic: ابوجعفر، محمّد بن یعقوب بن اسحاق الرازی) (c. 255/868-9 - 329/941) was among the greatest Shi'a hadith scholars and the author of al-Kafi, the most authentic Shi'a hadith collection and one the Four Books. He was born after the martyrdom of Imam al-'Askari (a), at the time of Imam al-Mahdi (a) and met some hadith transmitters who directly had heard hadiths from Imam al-Hadi (a) and Imam al-'Askari (a). It is said that al-Kulayni was very accurate in transmitting hadiths. Ibn Qulawayh, Muhammad b. Ali Majilawayh al-Qummi, Ahmad b. Muhammad al-Zurari were among his students.
