16 - وبهذا الإسناد عن الحسين بن يزيد، عن يحيى بن أبي يحيى، عن عبد الله ابن الصامت، عن عبد الأعلى، عن العبد الصالح موسى بن جعفر عليهما السلام، قال: علم الله لا يوصف منه بأين، ولا يوصف العلم من الله بكيف، ولا يفرد العلم من الله، ولا يبان الله منه، وليس بين الله وبين علمه حد . باب صفات الذات وصفات الأفعال

Translation

16. And the same chain of narrators that on the authority of al-Husayn ibn Yazid, on the authority of Yahya ibn Abu Yahya, on the authority of `Abd Allah ibn al-Samit, on the authority of `Abd al-A`la, on the authority of al-`Abd al-Salih that Musa ibn Ja`far (AS) said: The Knowledge of Allah cannot be described in terms of `where,’ nor can the Knowledge of Allah be described in terms of `how.’ Knowledge cannot be separated from Allah, nor can Allah be separated from Knowledge. There is no boundary between Allah and His Knowledge.
