A number of our people has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-Barqi from \u2019Isma\u2019il ibn Mihran from abu Sa\u2018id al-Qammat from al-Halabi from abu \u2018Abdallah (a.s.) who has said the following.
\n“Imam Ali (a.s.) said, \u2018Do you want me to describe to you the true Faqih<\/i>, person who truly has a good understanding of religion? A true Faqih<\/i> is one who does not cause people to despair from the mercy of Allah and does not make them to be unconcerned about the punishment of Allah, who does not allow them to consider disobedience to Allah as permissible and who doe not abandon the holy Quran because of being attracted towards other matters. You must know that there is no goodness in knowledge without good understand (Fiqh<\/i>). You must know that there is nothing good in a recitation without thinking about it. You must know that there is nothing good in worship without thoughtfulness. In another Hadith<\/i> it says, ” You must know that there is nothing good in a knowledge without good understanding. You must know that there is nothing good in a recitation without thinking about it. You must know that there is nothing good in worship without having a good understanding of religion. You must know that there is nothing good in performing the acts of Hajj etc. without piety.\u2019”<\/p>\n

Through the same chain of narrators it is narrated from Muhammad ibn Khalid from Muhammad ibn Sinan in a marfu\u2018 manner (rafa’ahu )<\/i> from Jesus son of Mary who has said the following to his disciples.
\n“O disciples, I need your help so help me.” They replied, “Your request is granted, O Spirit of God.” Jesus then got up and washed their feet. To this the disciples said, “We were supposed to serve you O Spirit of God.” Jesus then said, “Of the people who must serve others are the scholars. I acted in this humble way so that you will act among people in the humble way I acted before you.” Jesus then said, “With humbleness wisdom is established but not with arrogance. Just as plants grow in plain and soft grounds but not on the hard grounds and rocks.”<\/p>\n
