John Shaqi

قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) عَجَباً لِلْمُخْتَالِ الْفَخُورِ وَ إِنَّمَا خُلِقَ مِنْ نُطْفَةٍ ثُمَّ يَعُودُ جِيفَةً وَ هُوَ فِيمَا بَيْنَ ذَلِكَ لَا يَدْرِي مَا يُصْنَعُ بِهِ .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Usman Bin Isa, from Isa Bin Al Zahhak who said, ‘Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘I<sup>asws</sup> wonder at the boastful, the proud, and rather he was Created from a seed, then he would return to be a carcass, and he is, during what is between that, not knowing what would be done with him’.
