Shaykh Muḥammad b. ʿAlī al-Ṣaduq · The Blessed and Exalted is a Thing
1 - أبي رحمه الله، قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله الأشعري، قال: حدثنا أحمد بن محمد بن خالد، عن محمد بن عيسى، عمن ذكره، قال: سئل أبو جعفر عليه السلام أيجوز أن يقال: إن الله عز وجل شئ؟ قال: نعم، يخرجه عن الحدين حد التعطيل وحد التشبيه .
1. My father (RA) that Sa`d ibn `Abd Allah al-Ash`ari said: Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Isa, on the authority of one he mentioned, said Abu Ja`far al-Baqir (AS) was asked: “Is it permissible to say that Allah, the Might and High, is a Thing?” He (AS) replied: “Yes, to the extent that it removes Him from both extremes: annulment [ta`til], and anthropomorphism [tashbih].”
