2. A number of our people has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn abu Basir from Muthanna from Zurara who has said the following.
“Once I was in the presence of abu Ja‘far (a.s.). A man from Kufa asked him about the words of Amir al-Mu’minin (a.s.), “Ask me whatever you would like. Whatever you may ask I will give you the answer.” The Imam (a.s.) said, “No one has any piece of knowledge of anything that has not come through Amir al-Mu’minin (a.s.) People may go wherever they may like, however, by Allah, the truth comes from no where else except from here, he pointed out with his hand towards his house.”
2ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ مُثَنًّى عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ
كُنْتُ عِنْدَ ابي جعفر (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ يَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ قَوْلِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) سَلُونِي عَمَّا شِئْتُمْ فَلا تَسْأَلُونِّي عَنْ شَيْءٍ إِلا أَنْبَأْتُكُمْ بِهِ قَالَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ عِنْدَهُ عِلْمُ شَيْءٍ إِلا خَرَجَ مِنْ عِنْدِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فَلْيَذْهَبِ النَّاسُ حَيْثُ شَاءُوا فَوَ الله لَيْسَ الامْرُ إِلا مِنْ هَاهُنَا وَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ.
