4. Muhammad ibn al-Hasan ibn Ahmad ibn al-Walid (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Muhammad ibn al-Hasan al-Saffar; and Sa`d ibn `Abd Allah all said on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn `Isa; and al-Haytham ibn Abu Masruq al-Nahdi; and Muhammad ibn al-Husayn ibn Abu al-Khattab all of whom on the authority of al-Hasan ibn Mahbub; on the authority of `Umar ibn Abu al-Miqdam; on the authority of Ishaq ibn Ghalib; on the authority of Abu `Abd Allah (AS); on the authority of his father (AS) that The
Messenger of Allah (SA) said in some of his sermons: All praise is due to the Allah Who is Unique in His Beginning, and is Greatest in Divinity in His Eternity. He is the Great Absolute with Grandeur and Might. He innovated what He instigated. And He originated what He created without example prior to creating anything. The One without a Beginning raised us through the benevolence of His Lordship. With His knowledge He rendered. Due to the judgment of His Omnipotence He created all of creation. With the light of morning He made the dawn. Therefore, there is no substitute for His Creation, and none can modify what He makes. There is no hastening his Judgement, and no resting from His Call. There is no decline to His Realm, not an interruption to His Time. He is the First Existence, and is Forever Permanent. He is covered by His light, not by His Creation, in the high-aspiring horizon, the lofty might, and the high realm. He is far from everything, yet He is close to everything. Hence, He is Evident to His creation without being seen. He is the Highest Prospect. He liked to be qualified with Oneness so He covered Himself with His own Light. He is Distinctive in His Sublimity, and is Hidden from His Creation. He sent Messengers to His Creation as His Decisive Argument and Witnesses over them. Between the Messengers, He sent Prophets to His Creation, to give glad tidings (to the believers) who would be granted eternal life after having received the Evidence from Allah. He also sent Prophets to His Creation as warners of impeding doom to those who would be destroyed after having received the Evidence (from Allah). He did all of this so that servants may know their Lord. As a result, they recognized His Lordship after having denied it. They professed the Unity of His Divinity as a result of Diving Guidance.
4 - حدثنا محمد بن الحسن بن أحمد بن الوليد رضي الله عنه، قال: حدثنا محمد ابن الحسن الصفار، وسعد بن عبد الله جميعا، عن أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى، والهيثم بن أبي مسروق النهدي، ومحمد بن الحسين بن أبي الخطاب كلهم، عن الحسن بن محبوب، عن عمرو بن أبي المقدام، عن إسحاق بن غالب، عن أبي عبد الله، عن أبيه عليهما السلام، قال
قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله في بعض خطبه: الحمد لله الذي كان في أوليته وحدانيا، وفي أزليته متعظما بالإلهية، متكبرا بكبريائه وجبروته ابتدأ ما ابتدع، وأنشأ ما خلق على غير مثال كان سبق بشئ مما خلق، ربنا القديم بلط ف ربوبيته وبعلم خبره فتق وبإحكام قدرته خلق جميع ما خلق، وبنور الاصباح فلق، فلا مبدل لخلقه، ولا مغير لصنعه، ولا معقب لحكمه، ولا راد لأمره، ولا مستراح عن دعوته ولا زوال لملكه، ولا انقطاع لمدته، وهو الكينون أولا والديموم أبدا، المحتجب بنوره دون خلقه في الأفق الطامح، والعز الشامخ والملك الباذخ، فوق كل شئ علا، و من كل شئ دنا، فتجلى لخلقه من غير أن يكون يرى. وهو بالمنظر الأعلى، فأحب الاختصاص بالتوحيد إذ احتجب بنوره، وسما في علوه، واستتر عن خلقه، و بعث إليهم الرسل لتكون له الحجة البالغة على خلقه ويكون رسله إليهم شهداء عليهم، وابتعث فيهم النبيين مبشرين ومنذرين ليهلك من هلك عن بينة ويحيى من حي عن بينة، وليعقل العباد عن ربهم ما جهلوه فيعرفوه بربوبيته، بعد ما أنكروا ويوحدوه بالإلهية بعد ما عضدوا .
