سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع- عَنِ الْقُرْآنِ وَ الْفُرْقَانِ أَ هُمَا شَيْئَانِ أَوْ شَيْءٌ وَاحِدٌ فَقَالَ ع الْقُرْآنُ جُمْلَةُ الْكِتَابِ وَ الْفُرْقَانُ الْمُحْكَمُ الْوَاجِبُ الْعَمَلِ بِهِ.

11. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ibn Sinan or others from those whom he has mentioned (in his book) who has said the following: “Once I asked Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) whether al-Quran and al-Furqan are two different things or one thing? The Imam said, ‘Al-Quran is the name of the whole book and al-Furqan is that much that is clearly understood and is necessary to act accordingly thereby.’”
