03. The Fourfold Knowledge about the Imam
And again one must know that (the way to) the knowledge of the Imam is
fourfold. [Fol.3v.] First, the knowledge of his body. It can be shared even by
an animal. Secondly, the knowledge of his name. It can be obtained even by
adversaries. Thirdly, the recognition of his Imamat. In this the "people of the
order" can participate. Fourth, the knowledge of his (real) nature. It can be
posse4ssed by his Hujjat only.
