172 - وَبِهذَا الإِسناد عَنِ الحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِى‏عَلَيْهِمَاالسَّلاَمُ قالَ: إِنَّ يَهُودِيّاً سَأَلَ عَلِىِّ بْنِ أَبِي طالِب‏ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ فَقالَ: أَخْبِرنِي عَمَّا لَيْسَ لِلَّهِ، وَعَمَّا لَيْسَ عِنْدَ اللَّه، وَعَمَّا لا يَعلَمُهُ اللَّه تَعالى‏، قالَ عَلِيِ‏ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ: أَمَّا ما لا يَعلَمُهُ اللَّهُ فَذلِكَ قَولَكُمْ يا مَعْشَرَ اليَهُود عَزِيرٌ ابْنِ اللَّه وَاللَّه لا يَعْلَمُ لَهُ اِبْنا وَأَمَّا قَوْلُكَ: ما لَيْسَ لِلَّهِ فَلَيْسَ لَهُ شَرِيك وَأَمَّا قَوْلُكَ: ما لَيْسَ عِنْدَ اللَّه فَلَيْسَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ ظُلمٌ لِلعِباد فَقالَ اليَهُودي: أَشْهَدُ أَن لا إِلهَ إِلاّ اللَّه وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّداً رَسُولَ اللَّهِ‏ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ.

Translation

31-172 According to the same documentation, it is narrated that Al-Husayn ibn Ali (a.s.) said that a Jew asked Ali ibn Abi Talib (a.s.), “Inform me about what is not for God, what is not with God, and what God does not know.” Ali (a.s.) said, “What God does not know is what your nation - the Jewish people - say that ‘Uzair is the son of God’. God does not consider anyone to be His son. What is not for God is a partner since He does not have any. And what is not with God is oppressing the servants.” The Jew said, “I bear witness that there is no god but God, and that Muhammad is God’s Prophet (S).”
