حدثنا محمد بن محمد بن عصام الكليني - رضي الله عنه - قال: حدثنا محمد بن يعقوب الكليني قال: حدثنا علي بن محمد المعروف بعلان الكليني قال: حدثنا محمد بن عيسى بن عبيد قال: سألت أبا الحسن علي بن محمد العسكري عليهما السلام عن قول الله عز وجل " والأرض جميعا قبضته يوم القيامةوالسماوات مطويات بيمينه " فقال: ذلك تعيير الله تبارك و تعالى لمن شبهه بخلقه، ألا ترى أنه قال: " وما قدروا الله حق قدره – إذ قالوا: إن - الأرض جميعا قبضته يوم القيامة والسماوات مطويات بيمينه " كما قال عز وجل: " وما قدروا الله حق قدره إذ قالوا ما أنزل الله على بشر من شئ " ثم نزه عز وجل نفسه عن القبضة واليمين فقال: " سبحانه وتعالى عما يشركون ".
4.	We were told by Muhammed bin Muhammed bin ‘Isam al-Kulayni, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin Yaq’ub al-Kulayni, that he said: We were told by Ali bin Muhammed, known as ‘Allan al-Kulayni, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin ‘Isa bin Ubayd, that he said: I asked Abu’l-Hasan, Ali bin Muhammed al-Askari, peace be upon him, about the saying of Allah, Exalted and Glorious is He: «The earth, all of it, is His grasp on the Day of Resurrection, and the Heavens are bent in His Right» (39:67) to which he said: That is the expression of Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He, to he who likened Him to His creation. Do you not see that He said: «And they did not appraise Allah His true appraisal» (39:67) when they said: «The earth, all of it, is His grasp on the Day of Resurrection, and the Heavens are bent in His Right»? Moreover, He, Exalted and Glorious is He, said: «And they did not appraise Allah His true appraisal, when they said: Allah did not send down unto a human being, anything.» (6:91) Furthermore, He, Exalted and Glorious is He, Extolled Himself from grasping and (possessing) a right hand, as He said: «Glorified is He, and Exalted, from what they associate.» (9:66).
