2 - أبي رحمه الله، قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن إبراهيم بن هاشم، عن ابن فضال، عن أبي جميلة، عن محمد بن علي الحلبي، عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام في قوله عز وجل: (يوم يكشف عن ساق) قال: تبارك الجبار، ثم أشار إلى ساقه فكشف عنها الإزار، قال: ويدعون إلى السجود فلا يستطيعون، قال: أفحم القوم ودخلتهم الهيبة، وشخصت الأبصار، وبلغت القلوب الحناجر، خاشعة أبصارهم ترهقهم ذلة وقد كانوا يدعون إلى السجود وهم سالمون. قال محمد بن علي مؤلف هذا الكتاب: قوله عليه السلام: تبارك الجبار وأشار إلى ساقه فكشف عنها الإزار، يعني به: تبارك الجبار أن يوصف بالساق الذي هذا صفته.

He is far above having a shin, Who is such.”
