رسول الله (صلی الله علیه و آله):

الْمُؤْمِنُ كَمِثْلِ شَجَرَةٍ لَايَتَحَاتُ‏ وَرَقُهَا فِي شِتَاءٍ وَ لَا صَيْفٍ، قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، وَ مَا هِيَ؟ قَالَ: النَّخْلَةُ.

The Prophet Muhammad (S):

The example of the believer is that of the tree the leaves of which never fall whether in winter or summer. He was then asked what tree that was to which he replied; 'It is the date-palm.'

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.
