Al-Kāfi / Those who Act without Knowledge

Working without understanding and insight is like travelling in the wrong direction, which only takes one farther away from the destination.

Hawzah News Agency - A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid from his father from Muhammad ibn Sinan from Talha ibn Zayd who has said the following. “(Imam) abu ‘Abdallah (a.s) has said,

الْعَامِلُ عَلَى غَيْرِ بَصِيرَةٍ كَالسَّائِرِ عَلَى غَيْرِ الطَّرِيقِ لا يَزِيدُهُ سُرْعَةُ السَّيْرِ إِلا بُعْداً.

‘Working without understanding and insight is like travelling in the wrong direction that only takes one farther away from the destination.’”

Al-Kāfi, v.1, Book 2, Chapter 12
