14. Muhammad ibn Musa ibn al-Mutawakkil (RA) said: `Abd Allah ibn Ja`far al-Himyari, on the authority of Ahmand ibn Muhammad, on the authority of al-Hasan ibn Mahbub, on the authority of Ibn Sinan, on the authority of Ja`far ibn Muhammad (AS), that His father, Muhammad al-Baqir (AS), said
Verily, for Allah, Exalted be He, there is specific knowledge, and there is common knowledge. As for the specific knowledge, it is the knowledge of which even the Closest Angels and Messengers (AS) are not informed. And as for the common knowledge, it is the knowledge that His Closest Angels and Messengers know, and which has reached us from the Messengers of Allah.”
14 - حدثنا محمد بن موسى بن المتوكل رحمه الله، قال: حدثنا عبد الله بن جعفر الحميري: عن أحمد بن محمد، عن الحسن بن محبوب، عن ابن سنان، عن جعفر ابن محمد، عن أبيه عليهما السلام، قال
إن الله تعالى علما خاصا، وعلما عاما، فأما العلم الخاص فالعلم الذي لم يطلع عليه ملائكته المقربين وأنبياءه المرسلين، وأما علمه العام فإنه علمه الذي أطلع عليه ملائكته المقربين وأنبياءه المرسلين، وقد وقع إلينا من رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله.
