الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):

إنَّ جَبرئيلَ عليه السلام أتى رسولَ اللّهِ صلى الله عليه و آله فخَيَّرَهُ، و أشارَ علَيهِ بالتَّواضُعِ ، و كانَ لَهُ ناصِحا ، فكانَ رسولُ اللّهِ صلى الله عليه و آله يأكُلُ إكلَةَ العَبدِ ؛ و يَجلِسُ جِلسَةَ العَبدِ تَواضُعا للّهِ تباركَ و تعالى .

Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as):

Gabriel came to the Messenger of Allah (s) and gave him the choice [between the kingdom of this world and its treasuries and asceticism] advising him sincerely to choose humbleness, thus the Messenger of Allah would eat like slaves and sit like slaves out of humbleness to Allah, blessed and the most high.

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.
