۞
3. And with the same chain of transmission, on the authority of al-Hasan ibn Mahbub, on the authority `Ali ibn Ri’ab, on the authority of Durays al-Kanasi, that Abu Ja`far al-Baqir (AS) said
“Mention Allah’s Greatness as you wish, but do not discuss His Essence, as He is greater than anything you may mention.”
3 - وبهذا الإسناد، عن الحسن بن محبوب، عن علي بن رئاب، عن ضريس الكناسي، عن أب�� جعفر عليه السلام قال
اذكروا من عظمة الله ما شئتم ولا تذكروا ذاته فإنكم لا تذكرون منه شيئا إلا وهو أعظم منه.
