٢ - حدثنا محمد بن الحسن بن أحمد بن الوليد رحمه الله قال: حدثنا محمد بن الحسن الصفار، قال: حدثنا أحمد بن محمد بن خالد، عن بعض أصحابنا، قال: مر أبو الحسن الرضا عليه السلام بقبر من قبور أهل بيته فوضع يده عليه، ثم قال: إلهي بدت قدرتك ولم تبد هيئة فجهلوك  وقدروك والتقدير على غير ما به وصفوك  وإني برئ يا إلهي من الذين بالتشبيه طلبوك، ليس كمثلك شئ، إلهي ولن يدركوك، وظاهر ما بهم منعمتك دليلهم عليك لو عرفوك، وفي خلقك يا إلهي مندوحة أن يتناولوك  بل سووك بخلقك، فمن ثم لم يعرفوك، واتخدوا بعض آياتك ربا فبذلك وصفوك، تعاليت ربي عما به المشبهون نعتوك. 
2. Muhammad ibn al-Hasan ibn Ahmad ibn al-Walid  said: Muhammad ibn al-Hasan al-Saffar said: Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid said, on the authority of some of our scholars that Abu al-Hasan al-Rida  was passing by a grave from the graves of his Household, so he placed his hand on the grave and said: O my God! Your Omnipotence is apparent. However, since You are Shapeless, people are ignorant of You. They try to measure You in a vain efforts to recognize You. However, any measurement of You is other than you. O my Lord! I disassociate myself from those who compare You with Your creation. Nothing is similar to You. My Lord! They cannot comprehend You. If they wanted to recognize You, Your blessings are the best proof for You. O my God! It is sufficient for them to ponder on Your Creation, and to refrain from exploring Your Nature. However, they consider You are your Creation as one and the same. That is why they fail to truly recognize You and consider Your Signs as their Lord and have described you as such. My Lord! You are far above the descriptions of the anthropomorphist.
