1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to us by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah al-Barqi who said it was narrated to me by al-Hussain b. Yazid al-Nawfali from al-Sakuni from Abi Abdillah who said: Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) says that the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) was asked, “Who is the best of men?” The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) replied, “One who comes and goes.” He was again asked, “What is meant by one who comes and goes?” He replied, “One who starts and ends. One who starts reciting the Holy Quran and ends it. There is no one nearer to Allah than him and his supplications are accepted.”
IsnādAbi Rah a dit: Sa'd ibn Abdullah nous a informés, d'après Ahmad ibn Abi Abdullah al-Barqi, qui a dit: Al-Husayn ibn Yazid an-Nawfali m'a informé, d'après as-Sakuni, d'après Abi Abdullah, qui a dit:
Il a été demandé: "Ô Messager d'Allah, quel homme est le meilleur?" Il a répondu: "Celui qui se retire paisiblement." On demanda: "Ô Messager d'Allah, qu'est-ce que se retirer paisiblement?" Il a dit: "Celui qui commence et termine le Coran, pour lui, auprès d'Allah, il y a une invocation exaucée."
