Hadith 33

(The book) ‘Al Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashub – Kahmash said, ‘Jabir Al Jufy said to me, ‘I entered to see Abu Ja’far-asws. He-asws said to me: ‘Where are you from? ’ I said, ‘From people of Al-Kufa’. He-asws said: ‘From who? ’ I said, ‘From (clan of) Jufy’. He-asws said: ‘What made you come over here? ’ I said, ‘To seek the knowledge’. He-asws said: ‘From who? ’ I said, ‘From you-asws! ’
He-asws said: ‘Whenever someone asks you, where you are from, so say, ‘From the people of Al-Medina’’. I said, ‘Is it permissible for me to lie? ’ He-asws said: ‘This isn’t a lie. One who was from Medina, so he is from its people until he comes out’’. [33]
(The book) ‘Rijal’ of Al Kashy – Jibraeel Bin Ahmad, from Al Shujaie, from Muhammad Bin Al-Husayn, from Ahmad Bin Al Nazr, from Amro Bin Shimr, from Jabir
