1. My father, may Allah grant him mercy, said: We were told by Sa’d bin Abdullah, from Ahmad bin Muhammed bin ‘Isa, from Qasim bin Yahya, from his grandfather, Hasan bin Rashid, from Abu’l-Hasan, Musa bin Ja’far, peace be upon them both, that he said: He was asked about the meaning of Allah, Glorious and Exalted is He, so he said: He has taken possession over the tiny and the magnified.
