Shaykh Muḥammad b. ʿAlī al-Ṣaduq · The meaning of the Path
حدثنا أبي - رحمه الله - قال: حدثنا علي بن إبراهيم بن هاشم، عن أبيه عن محمد بن سنان، عن المفضل بن عمر، قال: حدثني ثابت الثمالي، عن سيد العابدين علي بن الحسين عليهما السلام قال: ليس بين الله وبين حجته حجاب، فلا له دون حجته ستر، نحن أبواب الله، ونحن الصراط المستقيم، ونحن عيبة علمه، ونحن تراجمة وحيه، و نحن أركان توحيده، ونحن موضع سره.
5. We were told by my father, may Allah grant him mercy, that he said: We were told by Ali bin Ibrahim bin Hashim, from his father, from Muhammed bin Sinan, from Mufaddal bin Umar, that he said: I was told by Thabit al-Thumali, from the Master of Worshippers, Ali bin Hussain, peace be upon them both, that he said: There is not, between Allah and His Proof, a veil, and so, there is not for Allah any cover before His Proof. We are the Gates of Allah, and we are the Straight Path, and we are Bag of His Knowledge, and we are the Interpreters of His Revelation, and we are the Pillars of His Oneness, and we are the Place of His Secret.
