قَالَ لِي أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع كَانَ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مَاءً وَ كانَ عَرْشُهُ عَلَى الْماءِ فَأَمَرَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ ذِكْرُهُ الْمَاءَ فَاضْطَرَمَ نَاراً ثُمَّ أَمَرَ النَّارَ فَخَمَدَتْ فَارْتَفَعَ مِنْ خُمُودِهَا دُخَانٌ فَخَلَقَ اللَّهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الدُّخَانِ وَ خَلَقَ الْأَرْضَ مِنَ الرَّمَادِ ثُمَّ اخْتَصَمَ الْمَاءُ وَ النَّارُ وَ الرِّيحُ فَقَالَ الْمَاءُ أَنَا جُنْدُ اللَّهِ الْأَكْبَرُ وَ قَالَتِ الرِّيحُ أَنَا جُنْدُ اللَّهِ الْأَكْبَرُ وَ قَالَتِ النَّارُ أَنَا جُنْدُ اللَّهِ الْأَكْبَرُ فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِلَى الرِّيحِ أَنْتِ جُنْدِيَ الْأَكْبَرُ. حَدِيثُ الْجِنَانِ وَ النُّوقِ

68. Muhammad, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Al-A’ala Bin Razeyn, from Muhammad Bin Muslim and Al-Hajjaal, from Al-A’ala, from Muhammad Bin Muslim who said: Abu Ja’far (asws) said to me: ‘Everything used to be water, and His (azwj) Throne used to be on the water. So Allah (azwj) Mighty is His (azwj) Mention Commanded the water, so a fire was ignited. Then He (azwj) Commanded the fire, so it was extinguished and smoke arose from its subsidence. So Allah (azwj) Created the Heavens from that smoke, and Created the earth from the ash. Then the water, and the fire, and the wind quarrelled. So the water said, ‘I am the greatest army of Allah (azwj)’, and the wind said, ‘I am the greatest army of Allah (azwj), and the fire said, ‘I am the greatest army of Allah (azwj). So Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic Revealed unto the wind: “You are My (azwj) greatest army’.
