Shaykh Muḥammad b. ʿAlī al-Ṣaduq · The meaning of «al-Samad»
حدثنا علي بن أحمد بن محمد بن عمران الدقاق - رضي الله عنه - قال: حدثنا محمد بن يعقوب، عن علي بن محمد، عن سهل بن زياد، عن محمد بن الوليد- ولقبه شباب الصيرفي - عن داود بن القاسم الجعفري قال: قلت لأبي جعفر عليه السلام: جعلت فداك، ما الصمد؟ قال: السيد المصمود إليه في القليل والكثير.
2. We were told by Ali bin Ahmad bin Muhammed bin Imran al-Daqqaq, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin Ya’qub, from Ali bin Muhammed, from Sahl bin Ziyad, from Muhammed bin Waleed – whose title is Shabab al-Sayrafi – of Dawud bin Qasim al-Ja’fari, that he said: I said to Abu Ja’far, peace be upon him: May I be sacrificed for you, what is al-Samad? He said: The Master to which one remains firm, during the less and the more (fortunate).
