الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):
(إنّ) العُبّادَ ثَلاثةٌ : قَومٌ عَبَدوا اللّهَ عَزَّ و جلَّ خَوفا فتِلكَ عِبادَةُ العَبيدِ، وَ قَوم عَبَدوا اللّهَ تَباركَ و تَعالى طَلَبَ الثَّوابِ فتِلكَ عِبادَةُ الاُجَراءِ، و قَوم عَبَدوا اللّهَ عَزَّ و جلَّ حُبّا لَهُ فَتِلكَ عِبادَةُ الأحرارِ، و هِيَ أفضَلُ العِبادَةِ .

Worshippers is of three types: some people worship God out of fear, and that is the worship of slaves; other people worship God seeking reward, and that is the worship of hirelings; and some people worship God out of love for Him, and that is the worship of those who are free, and that is the most excellent worship.

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.
