1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa and Ali ibn Ibrahim from his father, both of them from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from ‘Umar ibn ’Udhayna from Aban ibn abu ‘Ayyash from Sulaym ibn Qays who has said the following. “(Imam) Ali (a.s.) narrated from the holy Prophet who said, ‘Two kinds of people with great appetites do not become satisfied. A person of great appetite for the worldly gains and a person with great appetite for knowledge. In the matters of the worldly gains if one would limit himself to what Allah has made lawful form him he is saved and if one would accumulate such gains in unlawful ways he is destroyed unless he repents and changes his ways. In the matters of knowledge if one would acquire it from the people of knowledge and practice accordingly he is saved and if one would use it for the worldly gains then that is what one gets.’”

4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from al-Qasim from al-Minqari from Hafs ibn Ghiyath from abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.) who has said the following. “If you would find a learned person who loves the worldly gains you must not trust him in the matters of your religion because whoever would love something it will encompass and entangle him. The holy Prophet has said, ‘Allah sent wahy, revelation to David (a.s.) and told him, “Do not set between Me and yourself a learned person who loves the worldly gains lest he will bar you from the way to My love. Such people are bandits who ambush my servants who want Me. The least that I will do to such bandits is to take away from them the sweetness of their private conversations and prayers with Me.”

4 - Ali ibn Ibrahim, de son père, de Al-Qasim, de Al-Minqari, de Hafs ibn Ghiyath, de Abu Abdullah (que la paix soit sur lui) a dit : "Lorsque vous voyez un savant aimant sa vie mondaine, accusez-le de trahir votre religion. Car tout amoureux de quelque chose se préoccupe de ce qu'il aime. Et (que la prière d'Allah et Ses bénédictions soient sur lui) Allah a révélé à David (que la paix soit sur lui) : Ne laisse pas entre toi et moi un savant tenté par le monde, car il te détournerait de mon amour. Car ceux-là sont les coupeurs de chemin des serviteurs désireux. Certes, ce que je fais de plus proche d'eux est de retirer la douceur de Ma conversation de leurs cœurs."

Ali from his father from al-Nawfali from al-Sakuni from abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.) who has said the following. “The holy Prophet has said, Al-Fuqaha, the scholars of the Fiqh, Islamic laws are the trustees of the prophets until they are not involved in the worldly matters.” People asked, “What is their ‘entering in the worldly matters, O the holy Prophet of Allah?” “Their following the kings is entering in the worldly matters. When they follow the kings then you must be very careful in involving them in your religion.” Replied the holy Prophet (s.a.)

5. Ali, de son père, de An-Nawfali, de As-Sakuni, de Abu 'Abdillah (sur lui la paix) a dit: Le Messager d'Allah (que la prière d'Allah et Ses bénédictions soient sur lui et sa famille) a dit: "Les juristes sont les dépositaires des messagers tant qu'ils ne s'impliquent pas dans ce monde." On lui demanda: "Ô Messager d'Allah, qu'entendez-vous par leur implication dans ce monde?" Il répondit: "Suivre le sultan. Donc, lorsque vous les voyez faire cela, méfiez-vous d'eux pour votre religion."
