31-209 Ja’far ibn Muhammad ibn Masroor - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Ja’far al-Hemyari quoted on the authority of Ibrahim ibn Hashem, on the authority of al-Rayyan ibn al-Salt, ‘I asked Ar-Ridha’ : O son of God’s Prophet (S)! What do you think about the Qur’an?” Ar-Ridha’ said, “It is God’s Words. Do not go beyond its limits. Do not seek any other guidance as you will be lost.”
