11. Ali has narrated from his father from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan all from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Ibrahim ibn ‘Abd al-Hamid from a Shaykh of our people called abu al-Hassan who has narrated the following
“Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), has said that Allah, most Blessed, most High, has created a white rooster whose neck is under the throne and its legs in the center of the seventh earth, its one wing is in the east and one wing in the west. Other roosters do not crow until it crows. When it wants to crow it flaps its wings and says, ‘Tasbih (Allah is free of all defects) and is the most great like whom there is no one.’” He (the Imam) said that ‘Allah, most Blessed, most High, in response says, “A lying person would never swear falsely by My name would he but know about what you say.’””
11- عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ جَمِيعاً عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ عَنْ شَيْخٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا يُكَنَّى أَبَا الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
إِنَّ اللهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى خَلَقَ دِيكاً أَبْيَضَ عُنُقُهُ تَحْتَ الْعَرْشِ وَرِجْلاهُ فِي تُخُومِ الأرْضِ السَّابِعَةِ لَهُ جَنَاحٌ فِي الْمَشْرِقِ وَجَنَاحٌ فِي الْمَغْرِبِ لا تَصِيحُ الدُّيُوكُ حَتَّى يَصِيحَ فَإِذَا صَاحَ خَفَقَ بِجَنَاحَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللهِ سُبْحَانَ اللهِ الْعَظِيمِ الَّذِي لَيْسَ كَمِثْلِهِ شَيْءٌ قَالَ فَيُجِيبُهُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى فَيَقُولُ لا يَحْلِفُ بِي كَاذِباً مَنْ يَعْرِفُ مَا تَقُولُ.
