٢ـ عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنِ الْعَلاءِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا (عَلَيهِما السَّلام) قَالَ الإيمَانُ إِقْرَارٌ وَعَمَلٌ وَالإسْلامُ إِقْرَارٌ بِلا عَمَلٍ.
2. Ali has narrated from his father from ibn abu ’Umayr from al-‘Ala’ from Muhammad ibn Muslim from one of them (the two Imams)  who has said the following: “Faith or belief is to affirm and act accordingly. Islam is just an affirmation.”
