الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):

الْإِبْقَاءُ عَلَى الْعَمَلِ حَتّى‏ يَخْلُصَ أَشَدُّ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ، وَ الْعَمَلُ الْخَالِصُ الَّذِي لَا تُرِيدُ أَنْ يَحْمَدَكَ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ.

Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as):

Persevering with an action until it becomes pure and sincere is harder than [performing] the action itself. The pure action [done out of sincerity], is that which the servant does not wish to be praised for by anyone except Allah, Mighty and Exalted.

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.
