الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):

يَا مُوسى‏، أَ تَدْرِي لِمَ‏ اصْطَفَيْتُكَ بِكَلَامِي‏ دُونَ خَلْقِي؟ قَالَ‏: يَا رَبِّ، وَ لِمَ ذَاكَ؟ قَالَ: فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالى‏ إِلَيْهِ: يَا مُوسى‏، إِنِّي قَلَّبْتُ عِبَادِي ظَهْراً لِبَطْنٍ، فَلَمْ أَجِدْ فِيهِمْ أَحَداً أَذَلَّ لِي نَفْساً مِنْكَ.

Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as):

Allah revealed to Moses saying: "O Moses, do you know why I singled you out from among My creatures to speak to?" He said: "O Lord, why did You do so?" Allah revealed to him: "O Moses, I probed into the hearts of My servants thoroughly and I did not find among them anyone who was more humble before me than you."

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.
