3. [3/11] al-Kafi: From Ali from Muhammad b. Isa from Yunus from Jamil from Abi Abdillah عليه السلام – he (Jamil) said
I heard him saying: The people rise up (every morning) being in one of three categories: knowledgeable scholar, student seeking knowledge or scum. So we are the scholars and our Shia are the students and the rest of the people are scum.
[3/11] الكافي: عن علي، عن محمد بن عيسى، عن يونس، عن جميل، عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام قال
سمعته يقول: يغدو الناس على ثلاثة أصناف عالم ومتعلم وغثاء فنحن العلماء وشيعتنا المتعلمون وسائر الناس غثاء
