Shia: how could Al Kafi contain 16000 narrations, 66 of which only is said to have been by the PROPHET PBUH?

Kulaini narrated 16000 rafidhi hadith mostly from Jaafar Alsadeq, while the greatest man in mankind history pbuh shared 0.4% of this narrations.

Is the Prophet pbuh that insignificant to you?

BQ: Why is Jaafar Alsaqeq the only narrator? what about the rest of the imams, weren't they suppose to participate in perfecting your religion before the coming of your 12th?

Update:

412envy: 1st of all we know who Jaafar Alsadeq really was, he was a pious fallible slave of God, if you want to learn the true account of Jaafar Alsadeq and all Ahlulbayt, please refer to Ibn Taymiah's writings that narrated their humble pious lives, your version of Jaafar Alsadeq is completely offensive.

I'm not sure why it matters who narrated the the hadiths in the Sunni books, cause they are all "marfoo3" i.e sourced from the Prophet pbuh himself, not somebody else.

Let me explain the figures i have mentioned:

661 Hadiths were narrated by Sayyedna Ali (ra) in the following:

1- the 4 Sunan books

2- The 2 Sahih books (Bukhari and Muslim)

818 Hadiths were narrated by Sayyedna Ali (ra) in Musnad Imam Ahmed alone

479 Hadiths were narrated by Sayydena Ali (ra) in Musnad Abi Ya'ala

We Narrated 300,000 hadith from the Prophet pbuh (the greatest man in history), and you narrated 66 only, what does that tell you?

    Bukhari :: Book 4 :: Volume 56 :: Hadith 712

    Narrated Wathila bin Al-Asqa:

    Allah's Apostle said, "Verily, one of the worst lies is to claim falsely to be the son of someone other than one's real father, or to claim to have had a dream one has not had, or to attribute to me what I have not said."

    Bukhari :: Book 9 :: Volume 92 :: Hadith 382

    Narrated 'Abdullah:

    The best talk (speech) is Allah's Book 'Quran), and the best way is the way of Muhammad, and the worst matters are the heresies (those new things which are introduced into the religion); and whatever you have been promised will surely come to pass, and you cannot escape (it).

    @leon : recite this after me:

    23: 97-98

    "My Lord, I seek refuge in You from the incitements of the devils, And I seek refuge in You, my Lord , lest they be present with me."

    Sadiq (as) is not the only narrator. All the progeny are represented. If you know anything about Sadiq (as) which of course, you sunnis dont, you would know about the merits of he and his father which caused them to stand out in their scholarly spread of knowledge in the scopes of philosophy, and the sciences. Did you know 70% of Sahih Bukhari is narrated by Aisha and Abu Hurayra alone? There are less than 15 hadeeths narrated by Imam Ali (as). What happened to the Prophets family???

    There were thousands of sahaba of Imam Sadiq (as) at the era the Sahih Bukhari was being compiled. Not a single saying of his grandson could be incorporated????

    Is the Prophet and his family insignificant to you?

    Imam Ja`far al-Sadiq (a) said: " My words (hadith) are the words of my father, and the words of my father are the words of my grandfather, and the words of my grandfather are the words al-Husayn, and the words of al-Husayn are the words of al-Hasan, and the words of al-Hasan are the words of Amir al-Mu'mineen (a), and the words of Amir al-Mu'mineen are the words of the Prophet of Allah (s) and the words of the Prophet are the Sayings (qawl) of Allah."
