1 - أبي رحمه الله، قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله: قال: حدثنا أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى، عن محمد بن إسماعيل بن بزيع، عن منصور بن يونس، عن جليس لأبي حمزة، عن أبي حمزة، قال: قلت لأبي جعفر عليه السلام: قول الله عز وجل (كل شئ هالك إلا وجهه)؟ (١) قال: فيهلك كل شئ ويبقي الوجه، إن الله عز وجل أعظم من أن يوصف بالوجه، ولكن معناه كل شئ هالك إلا دينه والوجه الذي يؤتى منه (٢).
1. My father, may Allah have mercy on him, said that Sad ibn `Abd Allah said: Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn `Isa, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Isma`il ibn Bazi` on the authority of Mansur ibn Yunus on the authority of Jalis for Abu Hamzah on the authority of Abu Hamzah that I asked Abu Ja`far al-baqir (AS) about the Word of Allah, the Mighty and High: Everything is perishable but He (His Face). He (AS) replied:Everything will perish, but the Face [al-wajh] will remain. Verily, Allah, the Mighty and High, is Greater than being attributed with a face. However, the meaning of this is that everything will perish except His Religion and Face, from which He bestows.
