٦ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ يَحْيَى الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ مَالِكٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) يَا مَالِكُ أَنْتُمْ شِيعَتُنَا أَ لا تَرَى أَنَّكَ تُفْرِطُ فِي أَمْرِنَا إِنَّهُ لا يُقْدَرُ عَلَى صِفَةِ الله فَكَمَا لا يُقْدَرُ عَلَى صِفَةِ الله كَذَلِكَ لا يُقْدَرُ عَلَى صِفَتِنَا وَكَمَا لا يُقْدَرُ عَلَى صِفَتِنَا كَذَلِكَ لا يُقْدَرُ عَلَى صِفَةِ الْمُؤْمِنِ إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ لَيَلْقَى الْمُؤْمِنَ فَيُصَافِحُهُ فَلا يَزَالُ الله يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِمَا وَالذُّنُوبُ تَتَحَاتُّ عَنْ وُجُوهِهِمَا كَمَا يَتَحَاتُّ الْوَرَقُ مِنَ الشَّجَرِ حَتَّى يَفْتَرِقَا فَكَيْفَ يُقْدَرُ عَلَى صِفَةِ مَنْ هُوَ كَذَلِكَ.
6. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Yunus from Yahya al-Halabi from Malik al-Juhni who has said the following: “Abu Ja’far  once said to me, ‘O Malik, you are of our followers (Shi’a). Are you aware that you go to extremes in our cause? No one is able to describe Allah. Just as no one is able to describe Allah, no one is able to describe us. Just as no one is able to describe us, no one is able to describe the believer. When a believer meets the believer and shakes hands, Allah continues looking at them and sins fall from their faces like leaves fall from trees until they depart each other. How then is one able to describe one who is as such?’”
