عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ وَعَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ وَهْبٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ إِنَّ مِمَّا أَوْحَى الله إِلَى مُوسَى (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) وَأَنْزَلَ عَلَيْهِ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ أَنِّي أَنَا الله لا إِلَهَ إِلا أَنَا خَلَقْتُ الْخَلْقَ وَخَلَقْتُ الْخَيْرَ وَأَجْرَيْتُهُ عَلَى يَدَيْ مَنْ أُحِبُّ فَطُوبَى لِمَنْ أَجْرَيْتُهُ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ وَأَنَا الله لا إِلَهَ إِلا أَنَا خَلَقْتُ الْخَلْقَ وَخَلَقْتُ الشَّرَّ وَأَجْرَيْتُهُ عَلَى يَدَيْ مَنْ أُرِيدُهُ فَوَيْلٌ لِمَنْ أَجْرَيْتُهُ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ.
A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid from ibn Mahbub and Ali ibn al-Hakam from Mu’awiya ibn Wahab from (Imam) abu ‘Abd Allah , who said the following:
“I heard (Imam) abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), saying, ‘It was of the facts that Allah revealed to Moses and sent down in the Torah, ‘I am Allah, no one deserves to be obeyed and worshipped besides Me. I have created the creatures and created the Good and made it to run through the hands of those whom I love. Fortunate are those through whose hands I have made the Good to continue. I am Allah, no one deserves to be obeyed and worshipped besides Me. I created the creatures and created Evil and made it to run through the hands of whomever I wanted. Unfortunate, therefore, are those through whose hands I have made evil to run.’”
