سُئِلَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى- كُلُّ شَيْءٍ هالِكٌ إِلَّا وَجْهَهُ فَقَالَ مَا يَقُولُونَ فِيهِ قُلْتُ يَقُولُونَ يَهْلِكُ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ إِلَّا وَجْهَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ قَالُوا قَوْلًا عَظِيماً إِنَّمَا عَنَى بِذَلِكَ وَجْهَ اللَّهِ الَّذِي يُؤْتَى مِنْهُ.

1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Ali ibn al-Ni‘man from Sayf ibn ‘Umayr from those whom he mentioned from al-Harith ibn al-Mughira al-Nasri who has said the following. “A person asked Imam abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.) about the words of Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High, “Everything will be destroyed except God. . .” (28:88) The Imam (a.s.) asked, “What do they say about it?” I replied, “They say that everything will perish except the face of Allah.” The Imam (a.s.) said, “Glory belongs to Allah. What they say is monstrous. What is meant thereby is that aspect of Allah’s relation with people through which (persons of highest degree of excellence) they establish faith in Him.”
