عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ إِنَّ فِي بَعْضِ مَا أَنْزَلَ الله مِنْ كُتُبِهِ أَنِّي أَنَا الله لا إِلَهَ إِلا أَنَا خَلَقْتُ الْخَيْرَ وَخَلَقْتُ الشَّرَّ فَطُوبَى لِمَنْ أَجْرَيْتُ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ الْخَيْرَ وَوَيْلٌ لِمَنْ أَجْرَيْتُ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ الشَّرَّ وَوَيْلٌ لِمَنْ يَقُولُ كَيْفَ ذَا وَكَيْفَ ذَا.
A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Muhammad ibn Hakim from Muhammad ibn Muslim who has said that he heard (Imam) abu Ja’far , say the following:
“In certain matters that Allah has revealed through His books is, ‘I am Allah. No one deserves to be obeyed and worshipped besides Me. I created the Good and Evil. Fortunate are those through whose hands I have made good to run and unfortunate are those through whose hands I have made evil to run and unfortunate are those who say, “How is this and how is that.’”
