سَهْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ الدَّيْلَمِيِّ الْمِصْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ قُلْتُ لَهُ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ هذا كِتابُنا يَنْطِقُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْحَقِّ قَالَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ الْكِتَابَ لَمْ يَنْطِقْ وَ لَنْ يَنْطِقَ وَ لَكِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) هُوَ النَّاطِقُ بِالْكِتَابِ قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ هَذَا كِتَابُنَا يُنْطَقُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْحَقِّ قَالَ قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ إِنَّا لَا نَقْرَؤُهَا هَكَذَا فَقَالَ هَكَذَا وَ اللَّهِ نَزَلَ بِهِ جَبْرَئِيلُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) وَ لَكِنَّهُ فِيمَا حُرِّفَ مِنْ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ .

Translation

11. Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Muhammad Bin Suleyman Al-Saylami Al-Misry, from his father, from Abu Baseer, who has narrated: Abu Abdullah (asws) said when the Statement of Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic was recited to him (asws); “[45:29] This is Our book that speaks against you with the truth”, he (asws) said: ‘Surely, the Book has never Spoken and will never Speak, but the Messenger (saww) of Allah (azwj), he (saww) is the speaker of the Book. Allah (azwj) has Said: “[45:29] This (the Messenger (saww) of Allah (azwj) )is Our book that speaks against you with the truth”. The narrator said, ‘I asked, ‘May I be sacrificed for you (asws), we do not read it as such’. He (asws) said: ‘By Allah (azwj), this is how Gabriel came down with it upon Muhammad (saww), but this is what was altered from the Book of Allah (azwj)’.
