Abū ʿAbd Allah Muḥammad b. Ibrāhīm al-Nuʿmānī · Preserving the secret of the Prophet’s Family
8 - وبه عن الحسن بن علي بن أبي حمزة، عن القاسم الصيرفي، ابن مسكان قال: سمعت أبا عبد الله يقول: قومٌ يزعُمون إنيّ إمامُهم. واللهِ ما أنا لهم بإمامٍ! لَعنهُمُ اللهُ كلَّما سَترتُ سِتراً هَتكوهُ. أقولُ كذا وكذا، فَيقولونَ إنمّا يعني كذا وكذا. إنمّا أنا إمامُ مَن أطاعَني.
(8) The previous series of narrators from al-Hasan bin Ali bin Abu Hamza from al-Qassim as-Sayrafi that ibn Miskan had said: I heard Abu Abdullah as-Sadiq (as) saying: Some people pretend that I am their imam. By Allah, I am not their imam. May Allah curse them. Whenever I put a curtain they tore it! I say so and so and they say: he means so and so. Definitely I am the imam of whoever obeys me.”
