Arabic text

19 - وبهذا الإسناد عن الحسن بن راشد، عن يعقوب بن جعفر، عن أبي إبراهيم عليه السلام أنه قال: لا أقول: إنه قائم فأزيله عن مكانه، ولا أحده بمكان يكون فيه، ولا أحده أن يتحرك في شئ من الأركان والجوارح، ولا أحده بلفظ شق فم، ولكن كما قال تبارك وتعالى: (كن فيكون) بمشيته من غير تردد في نفس، فرد، صمد لم يحتج إلى شريك يكون له في ملكه، ولا يفتح له أبواب علمه .

Translation

19. And with this chain of narration, on the authority of al-Hasan ibn Rashid, on the authority of Ya`qub ibn Ja`far, that Abu Ibrahim al-Kadhim (AS) said: I do not say: Verily, He is definite so I remove Him from His place, nor do I bound Him to a place that He may be confined to it. Nor do I set Him a boundary that He may move within something with support or by means of limbs. Nor do I limit Him with words that are thrust from the mouth. The Blessed and Exalted says: “Be and it is,” by His Will, and without any hesitation in desire, the Peerless, the Needless. He is not in need of an associate in His Sovereignty, nor an associate to open the doors of His Knowledge for Him.
