1. We were told by Muhammed bin Ibrahim bin Ishaq al-Talaqani, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: We were told by Abdul-Aziz bin Yahya al-Basri al-Jaloudi, in Basra, that he said: We were informed by Abu Abdillah, Muhammed bin Zakariya al-Jawhari, that he said: We were told by Ja’far bin Muhammed bin Umara, from his father, from Jabir bin Yazid al-Ju’fi, from Abu Ja’far, Muhammed bin Ali al-Baqir, peace be upon them both, that he said: I heard Jabir bin Abdullah al-Ansari say: The Messenger of Allah, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family, passed by an epileptic man while people were gathered around him looking at him, and he said: Around what did these people gather? It was said to him: Around an insane who is undergoing epilepsy. Then he looked at him and said: He is not insane. Shall I not inform you of the insane, the truly insane? They said: Sure, O Messenger of Allah. He said: Indeed, the insane, the truly insane, is the one who swaggers in his walk, looking at the height of the road [1], the one who moves his sides with his shoulders. That is the insane, and this (man) is afflicted.
