٥ - محمد بن عبد الله، الجعفري. لا نعرفه إلا من جهة علي بن محمد صاحب الزنج، ومن جهة عبد الله ابن محمد البلوي. والذي يحمل عليه فسائره فاسد. 
5 – Muḥammad b. ʿAbdullāh, al-Jaʿfarī.  We do not recognize him except from the direction of ʿAlī b. Muḥammad the Ṣāḥib of the Zanj, and from the direction of ʿAbdullāh b. Muḥammad alBalawī.  And that which is he is charged with, then the rest of it is corrupt.
