16. And the same chain of narrators that on the authority of al-Husayn ibn Yazid, on the authority of Yahya ibn Abu Yahya, on the authority of `Abd Allah ibn al-Samit, on the authority of `Abd al-A`la, on the authority of al-`Abd al-Salih that Musa ibn Ja`far (AS) said
The Knowledge of Allah cannot be described in terms of `where,’ nor can the Knowledge of Allah be described in terms of `how.’ Knowledge cannot be separated from Allah, nor can Allah be separated from Knowledge. There is no boundary between Allah and His Knowledge.
16 - وبهذا الإسناد عن الحسين بن يزيد، عن يحيى بن أبي يحيى، عن عبد الله ابن الصامت، عن عبد الأعلى، عن العبد الصالح موسى بن جعفر عليهما السلام، قال
علم الله لا يوصف منه بأين، ولا يوصف العلم من الله بكيف، ولا يفرد العلم من الله، ولا يبان الله منه، وليس بين الله وبين علمه حد . باب صفات الذات وصفات الأفعال
