3. Al-Husayn ibn Ahmad ibn Idris (RA) said on the authority of his father, on the authority of Muhammad ibn `Abd al-Jabbar, on the authority of Safwan ibn Yahya, on the authority of `Asim ibn Humayd that I consulted Abu `Abd Allah al-Sadiq (AS) regarding what is narrated about the vision of Allah. Hence, he (AS) explained
The sun is a seventieth portion of the light of the Throne [al-kursi]. The throne is a seventieth portion of the light of the Empyrean [`arsh]. The Empyrean is a seventieth portion of the light of the Veil [hijab]. And the Veil is a seventieth portion of the Veil of Light [sitr]. Hence, if they speak the truth, can their eyes bear the sight of the sun on a cloudless day?
3 - حدثنا الحسين بن أحمد بن إدريس رحمه الله، عن أبيه، عن محمد بن عبد الجبار، عن صفوان بن يحيى، عن عاصم بن حميد، قال
ذا كرت أبا عبد الله عليه السلام فيما يروون من الرؤية، فقال: الشمس جزء من سبعين جزءا من نور الكرسي، والكرسي جزء من سبعين جزءا من نور العرش، والعرش جزء من سبعين جزءا من نور الحجاب، والحجاب جزء من سبعين جزءا من نور الستر، فإن كانوا صادقين فليملؤوا أعينهم من الشمس ليس دونها سحاب .
