Shaykh Muḥammad b. ʿAlī al-Ṣaduq · Divine Unity and Negation of Anthropomorphism
8 - أبي رحمه الله، قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، قال: حدثنا محمد بن الحسين عن محمد بن سنان، عن إسحاق بن الحارث، عن أبي بصير، قال: أخرج أبو عبد الله عليه السلام حقا، فأخرج منه ورقة، فإذا فيها: سبحان الواحد الذي لا إله غيره، القديم المبدئ الذي لا بدئ له الدائم الذي لا نفاد له، الحي الذي لا يموت، الخالق ما يرى، وما لا يرى، العالم كل شئ بغير تعليم، ذلك الله الذي لا شريك له.
8. My father (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sa`d ibn `Abd Allah said: Muhammad ibn al-Husayn said on the authority of Muhammad ibn Sinan, on the authority of Ishaq ibn alHarith, on the authority of Abu Basir that Abu `Abd Allah al-Sadiq (AS) took out a small box and took out from it a piece of paper, which had the following written on it: Praise be to the One! There is no god but He. He is the Eternal, and the Originator without beginning. He is the Eternal, who does not tire. He is the Living, who does not die. He is the Creator of the seen and the unseen. He is the Knower of Everything without being taught. Such is Allah who has no associate.
