الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):

بَلَغَنِي عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عليه السلام‏ أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه و آله، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ‏، أَهْلُ بَيْتِي أَبَوْا إِلَّا تَوَثُّباً عَلَيَّ وَ قَطِيعَةً لِي وَ شَتِيمَةً، فَأَرْفُضُهُمْ؟ قَالَ: إِذاً يَرْفُضَكُمُ اللَّهُ جَمِيعاً. قَالَ: فَكَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ؟ قَالَ: تَصِلُ مَنْ قَطَعَكَ، وَ تُعْطِي مَنْ حَرَمَكَ، وَ تَعْفُو عَمَّنْ ظَلَمَكَ؛ فَإِنَّكَ إِذَا فَعَلْتَ ذلِكَ كَانَ لَكَ مِنَ اللَّهِ‏ عَلَيْهِمْ ظَهِيرٌ.

Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as):

A man came to the prophet (s) and said, 'O messenger of Allah, my family are only intent on harming me, cutting me off and abusing me. Shall I abandon them?' The prophet (s) said, 'Then Allah will abandon you all.' He said, 'What should I do then?' The prophet (s) said, 'Maintain relations with those who cut you off, grant those who deprive you, and pardon those who are unjust to you, and once you have done so, Allah will support you against 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.
