Al-Taqiyyah, Guarding and Cautiousness

12ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُعَمَّرِ بْنِ خَلادٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) عَنِ الْقِيَامِ لِلْوُلاةِ فَقَالَ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) التَّقِيَّةُ مِنْ دِينِي وَدِينِ آبَائِي وَلا إِيمَانَ لِمَنْ لا تَقِيَّةَ لَهُ.
12. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Mu’amar ibn Khallad who has said the following: “Once I asked Abu al-Hassan عليه السلام about standing up to salute the rulers (to show respect). He said that Abu Ja’far عليه السلام has said, 'Al-Taqiyyah is from my religion (belief) and the religion (belief) of my forefathers, and whoever disregards al-Taqiyyah has no belief.'"
