١٥ - حدثنا علي بن أحمد بن محمد بن عمران الدقاق رحمه الله، قال: حدثنا محمد بن أبي عبد الله الكوفي، قال: حدثنا محمد بن إسماعيل البرمكي، قال حدثنا علي بن العباس، قال: حدثنا الحسن بن محبوب، عن حماد بن عمرو النصيبي، قال: سألت جعفر بن محمد عليهما السلام عن التوحيد، فقال: واحد، صمد، أزلي، صمدي  لا ظل له يمسكه، وهو يمسك الأشياء بأظلتها  عارف بالمجهول، معروف عند كل جاهل  فرداني، لا خلقه فيه ولا هو في خلقه، غير محسوس ولا مجسوس ولا تدركه الأبصار، علا فقرب، ودنا فبعد، وعصى فغفر، وأطيع فشكر، لا تحويه أرضه، ولا تقله سماواته، وإنه حامل الأشياء بقدرته، ديمومي، أزلي، لا ينسى، ولا يلهو  ولا يغلط، ولا يلعب، ولا لإرادته فصل  وفصله جزاء، و أمره واقع، لم يلد فيورث، ولم يولد فيشارك، ولم يكن له كفوا أحد. 
15. `Ali ibn Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn `Imran al-Daqqaq (May Allah have mercy on him) said: Muhammad ibn Abu `Abd Allah al-Kufi said: Muhammad ibn Isma`il al-Barmake said: `Ali ibn al- `Abbas said: al-Hasan ibn Mahbub said on the authority of Hammad ibn `Amr alNasibi that: I asked Ja`far ibn Muhammad  regarding Diving Unity; hence, he said: He is the One, the Needless, the Eternal, and the Independent. He has no protection to which He may adhere, But he is the Protector of All things. He is the Knower of the unknown. He is known (even) to the ignorant. He is related to uniqueness. His Creation is not in Him, nor is He in His Creation. He is not sensed nor felt, and eyes cannot perceive Him. He is Elevated, yet He is Near. He is close, yet He is far. He is disobeyed, yet He forgives. He is obeyed, so He rewards. The Earth does not encompass Him. His Heavens do not carry Him. Verily, He carries all things by means of His Omnipotence. He is related to perpetuity and eternity. He does not forget nor waste time. He does not make mistakes or play. There is no separation for His Intent. His Judgment is His Reward, and His Command is accomplished. He does not beget to be inherited, not is He begotten to have an associate. And there is none like unto Him.
