The Prohibition of Discussing, Debating, and Arguing about Allah

Shaykh Muḥammad b. ʿAlī al-Ṣaduq
۞
1. My father (RA) said: Sa`d ibn `Abd Allah said: Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn `Isa, on the authority of al-Hasan ibn Mahbub, on the authority of `Ali ibn Ra’ab, on the authority of Abu Basir that Abu Ja`far al-Baqir (AS) said
“Discuss the creation of Allah, but refrain from discussing about Allah. Verily, discussing about Allah causes nothing but confusion.”
1 - أبي رحمه الله قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، قال: حدثنا أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى، عن الحسن بن محبوب، عن علي بن رئاب، عن أبي بصير، قال
قال أبو - جعفر عليه السلام: تكلموا في خلق الله ولا تكلموا في الله فإن الكلام في الله لا يزيد إلا تحيرا.
