قِيلَ لَهُ بِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ يُعْرَفُ الْإِمَامُ قَالَ بِالْوَصِيَّةِ الظَّاهِرَةِ وَ بِالْفَضْلِ إِنَّ الْإِمَامَ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يَطْعُنَ عَلَيْهِ فِي فَمٍ وَ لَا بَطْنٍ وَ لَا فَرْجٍ فَيُقَالَ كَذَّابٌ وَ يَأْكُلُ أَمْوَالَ النَّاسِ وَ مَا أَشْبَهَ هَذَا.
English translationMuhammad Sarwar
3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hisham ibn Salim and Hafs ibn al-Bakhtari who has said the following. “ Once a certain person asked abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.), “By what thing the Imam is recognized?” He said, “He is recognized through a publicly established will, through excellence in perfection. In the case of Imam no one must be able to raise objections in matters words, of his consumption and sexual matters so that people would say, “He is a liar, usurping other’s properties and such similar things.”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar·Thaqalayn link·The Arabic above is the original.
