سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ ع يَقُولُ النَّاسُ كُلُّهُمْ بَهَائِمُ- ثَلَاثاً إِلَّا قَلِيلًا مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنُ غَرِيبٌ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ.

2. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from ibn abu Najaran from Muthanna al-Hannat from Kamil al-Tammar who has said the following: “I heard abu Ja’far (a.s.) saying three times, ‘People are animals, people are animals, people are animals, except a few of believers. Believers are rare, believers are rare, and believers are rare, (more cherished).”’
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
