Arabic text

وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِي الصَّبَّاحِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عليه السلام قَالَ: إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى لَمْ يَدَعِ الْأَرْضَ إِلَّا وَ فِيهَا عَالِمٌ يَعْلَمُ الزِّيَادَةَ وَ النُّقْصَانَ فَإِذَا زَادَ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ شَيْئاً رَدَّهُمْ وَ إِذَا نَقَصُوا شَيْئاً أَكْمَلَهُ لَهُمْ وَ لَوْ لَا ذَلِكَ لَالْتَبَسَتْ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أُمُورُهُمْ.

Translation

And through the same chain of narrators from Muhammad bin Isa from Yunus bin Abdur Rahman from Abi Sabbah from Abi Abdullah (as) that he said: “Indeed Allah, the Blessed and the Mighty, does not leave the earth but that there is a scholar on it who is aware of every excess and deficiency so that if the believers observe excess in something he may return them (to the divine limits) and if they are deficient in something he may complete it for them. And if it had not been so, the affairs of the believers would have been unknown to them.”

Translation: Sayyid Athar Husain S. H. Rizvi — published with the edition, reproduced verbatim.
