سَمِعْتُ عَلِيَّ بْنَ الْحُسَيْنِ ع يَقُولُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ خَلَقَ مُحَمَّداً وَ عَلِيّاً وَ أَحَدَ عَشَرَ مِنْ وُلْدِهِ مِنْ نُورِ عَظَمَتِهِ فَأَقَامَهُمْ أَشْبَاحاً فِي ضِيَاءِ نُورِهِ يَعْبُدُونَهُ قَبْلَ خَلْقِ الْخَلْقِ يُسَبِّحُونَ اللَّهَ وَ يُقَدِّسُونَهُ وَ هُمُ الْأَئِمَّةُ مِنْ وُلْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص.
English translationMuhammad Sarwar
6. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn Ahmad from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from abu Sa‘id al-‘Usfuriy from ‘Amru ibn Thabit from Abu Hamza who has said the following. “I heard Ali ibn al-Husayn say, ‘Allah created Muhammad , Ali and the eleven Imams from his descendants out of the light of His greatness. He then placed them as figures in the brightness of His light where they worshipped Him before the creation of the creatures. They would speak of the Glory of Allah and of His Holiness. They are the Imams from descendants of the Messenger of Allah.”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar·Thaqalayn link·The Arabic above is the original.
