9 - حدثنا محمد بن موسى بن المتوكل رحمه الله، قال: حدثنا عبد الله بن جعفر الحميري، عن أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى، عن الحسن بن محبوب، عن عبد العزيز، عن ابن أبي يعفور، قال: قال أبو عبد الله عليه السلام: إن الله واحد، أحد، متوحد بالوحدانية، متفرد بأمره، خلق خلقا ففوض إليهم أمر دينه، فنحن هم يا ابن أبي يعفور نحن حجة الله في عباده، وشهداؤه على خلقه، وأمناؤه على وحيه، و خزانه على علمه، ووجهه الذي يؤتي منه وعينه في بريته، ولسانه الناطق، و قلبه الواعي، وبابه الذي يدل عليه، ونحن العاملون بأمره، والداعون إلى سبيله، بنا عرف الله، وبنا عبد الله، نحن الأدلاء على الله، ولولانا ما عبد الله، .
9. Muhammad ibn Musa ibn al-Mutawakkil, may Allah have mercy on him, said: `Abd Allah ibn Ja`far al-Himyari on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn `Isa on the authority of alHasan ibn Mahbub on the authority of `Abd al-`Aziz on the authority of Ibn Abu Ya`fur that Abu `Abd Allah al-Sadiq (AS) said: Verily, Allah is One [Wahid], Alone [Ahad], Sole in His Unity [Mutawahhid], Unique in His Affair. He made a creatin, and authorized it in the mattes of His Religion, and we are that creation. O son of Abu Ya`fur! We are the Proof [hujjah] of Allah among His servants, and we are His Witnesses to His Creation, the Trustees of His Revelation, the Treasurers of His Knowledge, the Face with which He bestows His Bounties, the Eye with which He sees His Creatures, the Tongue with which He talks, the Heart which embraces (in love), the Door that guides to Him, the Vicegerents with His Command, and the Callers to His Path. It is due to us that Allah was recognized and due to us that Allah was worshipped. We are the Guides unto Allah. Were it not for us, Allah would not have been worshipped.
