21 - حدثنا أبو الحسين محمد بن إبراهيم بن إسحاق العزائمي، قال: حدثنا أبو سعيد أحمد بن محمد بن رميح النسوي، قال: أخبرنا عبد العزيز بن إسحاق، قال: حدثني جعفر بن محمد الحسني، قال: حدثنا محمد بن علي بن خلف العطار، قال: حدثنا بشر بن الحسن المرادي، عن عبد القدوس وهو ابن حبيب، عن أبي إسحاق السبيعي، عن الحارث الأعور، عن علي بن أبي طالب عليه السلام أنه دخل السوق، فإذا هو برجل موليه ظهره يقول: لا والذي احتجب بالسبع، فضرب علي عليه السلام ظهره، ثم قال: من الذي احتجب بالسبع؟ قال: الله يا أمير المؤمنين، قال: أخطأت ثكلتك أمك، إن الله عز وجل ليس بينه وبين خلقه حجاب لأنه معهم أينما كانوا، قال: ما كفارة ما قلت يا أمير المؤمنين؟ قال: أن تعلم أن الله معك حيث كنت، قال: أطعم المساكين؟ قال: لا إنما حلفت بغير ربك.

Translation

21. Abu al-Husayn Muhammad ibn Ibrahim ibn Ishaq al-`Aza’mi said: Abu Sa`id Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Rumayh al-Nisawi said: `Abd al-`Aziz ibn Ishaq reported to us that Ja`far ibn Muhammad al-Hasani related to me that Muhammad ibn `Ali ibn Khalaf al-`Attar said: Bishr ibn al-Hasan al-Muradi said, on the authority of `Abd al-Quddus who is the son of Hubayb, on the authority of Abu Ishaq al-Sab`I, on the authority of al-Harith al-A`war that `Ali ibn Abu Talib (AS) entered the market. A man had his back turned towards him and was saying, “No, I swear by the One Hidden over the seven heavens.” Consequently, `Ali (AS) tapped him on his back, and asked him: “Who is hidden over the seven heavens?” He replied, “Allah, O Commander of the Faithful!” He (AS) responded, “You are wrong. May your mother grieve you! Verily, there is no veil between Allah, the Mighty and High, and His Creation, because He is with them wherever they may be.” He asked, “What is the penalty of what I have said: O Commander of the Faithful?” He (AS) replied, “That you should know that Allah is with you wherever you are” He asked: “Should I feed the poor?” Imam `Ali (AS) replied, “No, for verily, you have sworn by other than your Lord.”
