Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad from Mu'alla ibn Muhammad from al-Hassan ibn Ali al- Washsha' who has said that Muhammad ibn al-Fudayl narrated to me from abu Hamza from Imam Jafar Sadiq (asws) who has said the following.
"Only those who know Allah worship Him. Those who do not know Allah they worship Him just like those in misguidance."
I then asked, may Allah take my soul in service for your cause, what does "know Allah" mean?"
The Imam (asws) said,"To know Allah means
to acknowledge the existence of Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High,
to acknowledge His Messenger (saw) and to love Imam Ali (asws).
Of such knowledge is to follow Him and the Imams of guidance (asws)
and to condemn Their (Imams' asws) enemies.
This is what it means to "know Allah"."
(Al Kafi H 446 Ch 7 h 1)
'Do not obey him who disobeys the Creator.' Imam Ali (asws)
