=== Fighting with Israelites [Beliefs Imported in Islam] ===
Jews were among the present groups in society at the time of Imam al-Baqir (a) and they had a deep influence over the culture at that time. Some of the Jewish scholars pretended to become Muslims and others remained openly Jewish. Their influence spread in the Islamic society and thus, they became the authorities of some simple-minded people. Imam's (a) reaction included fighting with the Jews and their malicious instigation in Islamic culture, and renouncing their invented false hadiths about divine [[prophet|prophets]] (a) or issues which tarnished the true face of the Prophets (a). Below is an example:

::[[Zurara b. A'yan]] narrated that, "I was sitting before Imam al-Baqir (a) while he (a) was facing [[Ka'ba]], he said, 'Looking at the Ka'ba is an act of worship.' At that time, a man called 'Asim b. 'Umar came to Imam (a) and said [[Ka'b al-Ahbar]] says, 'Every morning, Ka'ba prostrates towards [[Jerusalem]].' Imam (a) said, 'What do you think about the opinion of Ka'b al-Ahbar?' The man answered, 'His talk is right.' Imam al-Baqir (a) said, 'You and Ka'b al-Ahbar are both incorrect,' then, while very disappointed, he said, '[[God]] has not created a monument more beloved than Ka'ba on earth".<ref>Majlisī, ''Biḥār al-anwār'', vol. 46, p. 354.</ref>
