Hadith.4709 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said:
"When Allah (swt), the Blessed and Exalted, wills to create a being,
He (swt) gathers every form between him and Adam (as), then creates him in the image of one of them. Therefore, no one should say about his child, 'This one does not resemble me or any of my ancestors.'"
4709 - وَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : "إِنَّ اَللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَخْلُقَ خَلْقاً جَمَعَ كُلَّ صُورَةٍ بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَ آدَمَ ثُمَّ خَلَقَهُ عَلَى صُورَةِ إِحْدَاهُنَّ فَلاَ يَقُولَنَّ أَحَدٌ لِوَلَدِهِ هَذَا لاَ يُشْبِهُنِي وَ لاَ يُشْبِهُ شَيْئاً مِنْ آبَائِي".
