40 - حَدَّثَنا الحُسَيْنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّد الأشنانِي الرَّازِيُّ العَدْل ببلخ قالَ: حَدَّثَنا عَلِىِّ بْنِ مهرويه القزويني قالَ: حَدَّثَنا داوُدِ بْنِ سُلَيْمان الفراء قالَ: حَدَّثَنا عَلِىِّ بْنِ مُوسَى الرِّضا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ، عَن أَبيهِ، عَن آبائِهِ، عَن الحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِى عَلَيْهِمُ السَّلاَمُ قالَ إِنَّ يَهُودِيّاً سَأَلَ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ‏ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ فَقَالَ أَخْبِرْنِي عَمَّا لَيْسَ لِلَّهِ وَعَمَّا لَيْسَ، عَن‏دَ اللَّهِ وَعَمَّا لا يَعْلَمُهُ اللَّهُ فَقَالَ عَلِيٌ‏ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ أَمَّا مَا لا يَعْلَمُهُ اللَّهُ فَهُوَقَوْلُكُمْ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْيَهُودِ إِنَّ عُزَيْراً ابْنُ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهُ تَعَالَى لا يَعْلَمُ لَهُ وَلَداً أَمَّا قَوْلُكَ مَا لَيْسَ لِلَّهِ فَلَيْسَ لِلَّهِ شَرِيكٌ وَأَمَّا قَوْلُكَ مَا لَيْسَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى فَلَيْسَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ ظُلْمٌ لِلْعِبَادِ فَقَالَ الْيَهُودِيُّ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لا إِلَهَ إِلا اللَّهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً رَسُولُ اللَّه.

Translation

11-40 Abu Abdullah Al-Hussein ibn Muhammad al-Ashnani Ar-Razi al-Adl in Balkh narrated that Ali ibn Mehrayat al-Qazvini quoted on the authority of Dawood ibn Soleiman al-Farra’, on the authority of Ali ibn Musa Al-Ridha (s), on the authority of his father (s), on the authority of his forefathers (s), on the authority of Al-Hussein ibn Ali (s), “A Jew asked the Commander of the Faithful Ali ibn Abi Talib (s): Let me know what is it that God does not have? What is it that is not with God? What is it that God does not know?”Ali (s) said, “What God does not know is what you Jews say, ‘Uzair (Ezra) is the son of God!’ God does not know of any sons for Himself. And about what you said regarding what is not with God, you should know that it is ‘oppression to the servants’. And regarding what you said about what God does not have, you should know that it is any partners.” The Jew said, “I bear witness that there is no god but God and I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of God.”
