Shaykh Muḥammad b. ʿAlī al-Ṣaduq · The meaning of terms mentioned in the Book and the Tradition about Monotheism
حدثنا أبي - رضي الله عنه - قال حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن يعقوب بن يزيد، عن العباس بن هلال قال: سألت الرضا عليه السلام عن قول الله عز وجل: " الله نور السماوات والأرض "؟ فقال: هاد لأهل السماء، وهاد لأهل الأرض. وفي رواية البرقي. هدى من في السماوات، وهدى من في الأرض.
6. We were told by my father, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: We were told by Sa’d bin Abdullah, from Ya’qub bin Yazid, from Abbas bin Hilal, that he said: I asked al-Rida, peace be upon him, about the saying of Allah, Exalted and Glorious is He: «Allah is the Light of the Heavens and the earth» (24:35) so he said: A Guide to the people of Heaven, and a Guide to the people of the earth. In the narration of al-Barqi: The Guidance of those who are in the Heavens, and a Guidance to those who are in the earth.
