الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):

لا يَدخُلُ الجَنَّةَ مَن كانَ في قَلبِهِ مِثقالُ حَبّةٍ مِن خَردَلٍ مِن الكِبرِ ، فاستَرجَعتُ ، فقالَ : مالَكَ تَستَرجِعُ ؟ قلتُ : لِما سَمِعتُ مِنكَ ، فقالَ : ليسَ حَيثُ تَذهَبُ ، إنّما أعني الجُحودَ ، إنّما هُو الجُحودُ.

Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as):

Muhammad ibn Muslim: Imam al-Sadiq (as) said, 'Whoever contains in his heart even a mustard seed’s weight of arrogance will not enter Paradise.' '[Upon hearing this] I uttered the word of Istirja’ [Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un].' The Imam asked, 'Why did you utter the word of Istirga'?' I replied, 'Because of what you said.' The Imam said, 'It is not what you think. What I meant was [the kind of arrogance that leads to] rejection. So it means rejection.'

Istirja (Arabic: ٱسْتِرْجَاع), is an Arabic phrase, mentioned in the second surah of the Quran, and meaning "Surely, we belong to Allah and verily to Him do we return." The phrase is commonly recited by Muslims, either in the midst of being tested by life, both as a sign of patience and an acknowledgement that God is the almighty, and he will not test his worshippers more than they can bear. More popularly, it is also used by Muslims upon receiving bad news or hearing that someone has passed.

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.
