6. Muhammad ibn al-Hasan ibn Ahmad ibn al-Walid (RA) said: Muhammad ibn Yahya al-`Attar said: al-Husayn ibn al-Hasan ibn Aban said, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Auramah that Yahya ibn Yahya said on the authority of `Abd Allah ibn al-Samit, on the authority of `Abd al-A`la that Al-`Abd al-Salih Musa ibn Ja`far (AS) said
Verily, Allah, there is no god but He, is Ever-living, but not in terms of quality or place. He is not in thing or on anything. He has not created for His Position any space. He is not strengthened through creation. Nothing that he has created is like Him. He was not powerless over things before their creation, not will He be powerless over them after they have gone. He, the Mighty and High, is the Ever-Living god without accidental existence. He is the Sovereign before creating something and He is its Master after creating it. Allah does not have any limits. He is not recognized by a thing that may be His like. He is not subject to aging. He does not raise His Voice to invoke anything, and with His Fear all things become stunned. Allah is Ever-Living, and not the product of accidental existence or a depicted existence. He neither has a restricted quality, nor a still space, but He is Ever-Living by Himself and the Master who is Eternally Omnipotent. He created what He willed when He willed, with His Will and Power. He is the First without any quality, and the Last without any space. Everything is perishable but He (His face). His is the creation and the command; blessed is the Lord of the worlds.
6 - حدثنا محمد بن الحسن بن أحمد بن الوليد رحمه الله، قال: حدثنا محمد بن يحيى العطار، قال: حدثنا الحسين بن الحسن بن أبان، عن محمد بن أورمة، قال: حدثنا يحيى بن يحيى عن عبد الله بن الصامت، عن عبد الأعلى، عن العبد الصالح موسى بن جعفر عليهما السلام، قال
إن الله - لا إله إلا هو - كان حيا بلا كيف ولا أين، ولا كان في شئ، ولا كان على شئ، ولا ابتدع لمكانه مكانا ولا قوي بعد ما كون الأشياء، ولا يشبهه شئ يكون، ولا كان خلوا من القدرة على الملك قبل إنشائه، ولا يكون خلوا من القدرة بعد ذهابه، كان عز وجل إلها حيا بلا حياة حادثة، ملكا قبل أن ينشئ شيئا ومالكا بعد إنشائه، وليس لله حد، ولا يعرف بشئ يشبهه، ولا يهرم للبقاء، ولا يصعق لدعوة شئ ولخوفه تصعق الأشياء كلها، وكان الله حيا بلا حياة حادثة ولا كون موصوف، ولا كيف محدود ولا أين موقوف ولا مكان ساكن بل حي لنفسه، ومالك لم يزل له القدرة، أنشأ ما شاء حين شاء بمشيته و قدرته، كان أولا بلا كيف، ويكون آخرا بلا أين وكل شئ هالك إلا وجهه، له الخلق والأمر تبارك رب العالمين.
