Ameer al-Momineen (a.s) quoted on the authority of God's Prophet (a.s)
“Whenever you hear a tradition which contains contradictions, it is not what I have said, even if they claim I have said it. And if you hear a tradition that is not contradictory by itself, it is from me. Whoever sees me dead is similar to one who sees me when I am alive. I am a witness for whoever comes to visit my tomb, and I shall be his witness in the Hereafter.”
قال أمير المؤمنين (عليه السلام): إني سمعت رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله) يقول: إذا أتاكم الحديث متجاوبا متفاوتا فما يكذب بعضه بعضا فليس مني ولم أقله وإن قيل " قد قاله "، وإذا أتاكم الحديث يصدق بعضه بعضا فهو مني وأنا قلته، ومن رآني ميتا كمن رآني حيا، ومن زارني فكنت له شاهدا وشهيدا يوم القيامة.
