Jabir ibn Yazid al-Ju'fi

Jabir ibn Yazid al-Ju'fi(Arabic: [جابر بن یزید الجُعفی‎) known sometimes as Thiqa (trustworthy), is recognized as the bab (gate) of the fifth Shia Imam al-Baqir, who related 70 secret Hadiths to him. Jabir claimed that he had seen some miracles from Baqir; still Shia do not reject him as a Ghali. Jabir is also transmitter of some Hadiths in the book Umm al-Kitab, which is Baqir's answers to the questions of his followers. Jabir is also the main narrator of some other Hadiths which is collected in another book, named Risalat al-Ju'fi which is said, consists of Jabir's view on Ismaili belief.[1][2]
