hadith 298

Meysareh narrated that Imam Baqir (a.s) said

“O' Meysareh! Do you want me to tell you about our followers?” He said: “May I be your devoted servant! Yes.” Imam Baqir (a.s) said: “They are like strong castles in faithful hearts. They have strong ideas. They do not hide the truth. They are not vain and ostentatious people. They are worshippers at nighttime and courageous like a lion during the daytime.”

عن ميسرة قال

قال أبو جعفر (عليه السلام): يا ميسر ألا أخبرك بشيعتنا؟ قلت: بلى جعلت فداك، قال: إنهم حصون حصينة، في صدور أمينة وأحلام رزينة ليسوا بالمذاييع البذر ولا بالجفاة المرائين، رهبان بالليل أسد بالنهار. والبذر: الذين لا يكتمون الكلام.

hadith 303

Abi Hatam al-Sejistani narrated that Imam Sadiq (a.s) said

“Those who follow us are in three groups. One group gets their respect and honor through associating themselves with us. Another group make a living through associating themselves with us. And the third group is really our followers. They work for us, and are secure if we are secure; and fear when we fear. They will not hide the truth, boast or talk in vain. They are not ostentatious. No one will look for them if they are absent, and no one will notice them if they are present. They are bright sources of guidance.”

وعن أبي حاتم السجستاني عن أبي جعفر (عليه السلام) قال

الشيعة ثلاثة أصناف: صنف يتزينون بنا، وصنف يستأكلون بنا، وصنف منا وإلينا، يأمنون بأمننا ويخافون بخوفنا، ليسوا بالبذر المذيعين ولا بالجفاة المرائين، إن غابوا لم يفقدوا، وإن يشهدوا لم يؤبه بهم، أولئك مصابيح الهدى.
