Chapter on the need to refer to the book and Sunnah
1ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ حَدِيدٍ عَنْ مُرَازِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ إِنَّ الله تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى أَنْزَلَ فِي الْقُرْآنِ تِبْيَانَ كُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ حَتَّى وَالله مَا تَرَكَ الله شَيْئاً يَحْتَاجُ إِلَيْهِ الْعِبَادُ حَتَّى لا يَسْتَطِيعَ عَبْدٌ يَقُولُ لَوْ كَانَ هَذَا أُنْزِلَ فِي الْقُرْآنِ إِلا وَقَدْ أَنْزَلَهُ الله فِيهِ.
1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Ali ibn Hadid from Murazim from abu ‘Abdallah عليه السلام who has said the following. “Allah, the Most holy, the Most High has certainly revealed an explanation for all things even, by Allah, He has not left untold anything that His servants would need up to the Day of Judgment. He has done so, so that people would not be able to say if only so and so would have been said in the Quran. The fact is that He has already said it in the holy Quran.”
