الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):

فِيمَا نَاجَى اللَّهُ- عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ- بِهِ‏ مُوسى‏ عليه السلام: يَا مُوسى‏، مَا تَقَرَّبَ إِلَيَّ الْمُتَقَرِّبُونَ بِمِثْلِ الْوَرَعِ عَنْ مَحَارِمِي؛ فَإِنِّي أُبِيحُهُمْ جَنَّاتِ‏ عَدْنٍ لَاأُشْرِكُ مَعَهُمْ أَحَداً.

Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as):

Part of what Allah said to Prophet Moses (as) in their intimate conversation: "O Moses, Those who seek nearness to me can only come closer to me by restraining themselves from what I have prohibited; I will admit them to Gardens of Eden which no one else will share with them."

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.
