الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):
الإمامُ الصّادقُ عليه السلام ـ لَمّا سُئلَ عن قَومٍ يَعمَلُونَ بالمَعاصِي و يَقولونَ : نَرجُو ، فلا يَزالُونَ كذلكَ حتّى يَأتِيَهُمُ الموتُ ؟ ـ : هؤلاءِ قَومٌ يَتَرَجَّحُونَ في الأمانِيِّ كَذَبوا لَيسُوا بِراجِينَ ، إنّ مَن رَجا شَيئا طَلَبَهُ و مَن خافَ مِن شيءٍ هَربَ مِنهُ .

When Imam al-Sadiq (AS) was asked about a group of people who commit sins and ,at the same time, express hopes [in God's mercy and forgiveness], and remain thus until death overtakes them, said: "These are people who swing back and forth between their desires. They are lying and are not really hopeful, for the one who hopes for something seeks it, and the one who fears something flees from it."

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.
