إِنَّ اللَّهَ خَلَقَ الْخَلْقَ فَخَلَقَ مَا أَحَبَّ مِمَّا أَحَبَّ وَ كَانَ مَا أَحَبَّ أَنْ خَلَقَهُ مِنْ طِينَةِ الْجَنَّةِ وَ خَلَقَ مَا أَبْغَضَ مِمَّا أَبْغَضَ وَ كَانَ مَا أَبْغَضَ أَنْ خَلَقَهُ مِنْ طِينَةِ النَّارِ ثُمَّ بَعَثَهُمْ فِي الظِّلَالِ فَقُلْتُ وَ أَيُّ شَيْءٍ الظِّلَالُ قَالَ أَ لَمْ تَرَ إِلَى ظِلِّكَ فِي الشَّمْسِ شَيْءٌ وَ لَيْسَ بِشَيْءٍ ثُمَّ بَعَثَ اللَّهُ فِيهِمُ النَّبِيِّينَ يَدْعُونَهُمْ إِلَى الْإِقْرَارِ بِاللَّهِ وَ هُوَ قَوْلُهُ وَ لَئِنْ سَأَلْتَهُمْ مَنْ خَلَقَهُمْ لَيَقُولُنَّ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ دَعَاهُمْ إِلَى الْإِقْرَارِ بِالنَّبِيِّينَ فَأَقَرَّ بَعْضُهُمْ وَ أَنْكَرَ بَعْضُهُمْ ثُمَّ دَعَاهُمْ إِلَى وَلَايَتِنَا فَأَقَرَّ بِهَا وَ اللَّهِ مَنْ أَحَبَّ وَ أَنْكَرَهَا مَنْ أَبْغَضَ وَ هُوَ قَوْلُهُ فَما كانُوا لِيُؤْمِنُوا بِما كَذَّبُوا بِهِ مِنْ قَبْلُ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع كَانَ التَّكْذِيبُ ثَمَّ.
English translationMuhammad Sarwar
2. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from Muhammad ibn ’Isma‘il ibn Bazi‘ from Salih ibn ‘Uqba from ‘Abdallah ibn Muhammad al-Ja‘fari from abu Ja‘far (a.s.) and ‘Uqba from abu Ja‘far (a.s.) who has said the following. “Allah created the creatures. He created whatever He loved from whatever He loved. The most beloved to Him He created from the clay of paradise. He created whatever He disliked from whatever He disliked. Thus, the most disliked to Him He created from the clay of fire. Then He sent them to the shadow.” I asked him, “What is the shadow?” The Imam (a.s.) said, “Have you not seen your own shadow in the sun that when look at it is nothing. Allah then sent to them the prophets who called them to acknowledge Allah as the creator. This is the meaning of His words. “(Muhammad), if you ask them, “Who had created them (idols)?” They will certainly say, “God has created them.. .”? (43:87) Then He called them to acknowledge the prophets. Some of them acknowledged and other did not acknowledge. Then He called them to acknowledge our Wilaya. Those whom He loved, by Allah, acknowledged and those whom He disliked did not acknowledge as He has said, “However, how could the people believe what they had previously called lies?. .” (10:74) Abu Ja‘far (a.s.) then said, “Refusal to acknowledge was then and there.”
