    Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Khoei's (ra) comments on this book...

    “After examining the traditions of the book and investigating its isnads, it appears that it [the book] contains many traditions - maybe more than a half [of the traditions in the book] - which do not accord with his [Ibn Qawlawayh’s] description in his introduction [that the work contains reliable transmitters only]. Moreover, the book contains many traditions whose isnads are not complete or which do not culminate in a ma‘sum (the infallible one). Persons who are not from our companions also occur in theisnads. Some figures who are not cited in our biographical works at all are also mentioned, others who are known to be weak like Muhammad b. ‘Abd Allah al-Mihran are also cited. Therefore, there is no alternative but to alter [our stated position] and to maintain that only his [Ibn Qawlawayh’s] mashayikh (teachers) from whom he reports directly (bila wasita), are reliable.”

    Allah (swt) knows best.
