سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ ع يَقُولُ‌ لَا وَ اللَّهِ لَا يَكُونُ عَالِمٌ‌ جَاهِلًا أَبَداً عَالِماً بِشَيْ‌ءٍ جَاهِلًا بِشَيْ‌ءٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ اللَّهُ أَجَلُّ وَ أَعَزُّ وَ أَكْرَمُ مِنْ أَنْ يَفْرِضَ طَاعَةَ عَبْدٍ يَحْجُبُ عَنْهُ عِلْمَ سَمَائِهِ وَ أَرْضِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَا يَحْجُبُ ذَلِكَ عَنْهُ.

English translationMuhammad Sarwar

6. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ‘Umar ibn ‘Abd al-‘Aziz from Muhammad ibn al-Fudayl from abu Hamzah who has that he heard abu Ja‘far (a.s.) say the following. “No, I swear by Allah, the scholar (who possesses Divine authority) is never ignorant or knowledgeable in something and ignorant of other things. The Imam (a.s.) then said, “Allah, the Most Holy, Most High and Most Gracious, is far exalted and above imposing the obedience of a servant (of His) on the others and then hide the knowledge of things in the heavens and on earth from him and then say, “Do not hide that from him.”
