الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):
فَبِالْعَقْلِ عَرَفَ الْعِبَادُ خَالِقَهُمْ، وَ أَنَّهُمْ مَخْلُوقُونَ، وَ أَنَّهُ الْمُدَبِّرُ لَهُمْ، وَ أَنَّهُمُ الْمُدَبَّرُونَ، وَ أَنَّهُ الْبَاقِي وَ هُمُ الْفَانُونَ، وَ اسْتَدَلُّوا بِعُقُولِهِمْ عَلى‏ مَا رَأَوْا مِنْ خَلْقِهِ: مِنْ سَمَائِهِ وَ أَرْضِهِ وَ شَمْسِهِ وَ قَمَرِهِ وَ لَيْلِهِ وَ نَهَارِهِ، وَ بِأَنَّ لَهُ‏ وَ لَهُمْ خَالِقاً وَ مُدَبِّراً لَمْ يَزَلْ وَ لَا يَزُولُ.

It is through intellect that people come to know their Creator and that they are created, that He is the One Who regulates their affairs, that they are the ones who are being maintained, that He is Eternal and they are mortals. It is through intellect that they reason based on what they have seen of His creation, like the heavens, the earth, the sun, the moon, the night and the day, and [come to the realization] that they and all other beings have a Creator who never ceases to exist and will always be.

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.
