Second Objection: That jaʿfar B. Muhammad Designated isma'il

Narrated to us Hasan bin Ahmad bin Idrees that: narrated to us my father narrating from Muhammad bin Ahmad from Yaqoob bin Yazid and Barqi from Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Abi Nasr from Hammad from Ubaid bin Zurarah that he said: I mentioned Ismail in the presence of Imam Ja’far Sadiq عليه السلام. He said: “By Allah, neither he resembles me nor any of my purified forefathers.”
