Hadith 1470
۞
1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Ali ibn al-Hakam from abu Ayyub from Muhammad ibn Muslim who has said the following
“I heard either of the two Imams (a.s.) saying, ‘Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, has created a creature for belief and there is no transition in it. He has created a creature for disbelief and there is no transition in it. He has created a creature in between. He has deposited belief in certain individuals among them. If He wills to complete it for them He does so for them, and if He wishes to remove it from them He does so and so and so was of transient (belief) among them.’” (So and so is a reference to Muhammad ibn Miqlas al- Asadi al-Kufi)
1ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا (عَلَيهِما السَّلام) قَالَ
سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ إِنَّ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ خَلَقَ خَلْقاً لِلإيمَانِ لا زَوَالَ لَهُ وَخَلَقَ خَلْقاً لِلْكُفْرِ لا زَوَالَ لَهُ وَخَلَقَ خَلْقاً بَيْنَ ذَلِكَ وَاسْتَوْدَعَ بَعْضَهُمُ الإيمَانَ فَإِنْ يَشَأْ أَنْ يُتِمَّهُ لَهُمْ أَتَمَّهُ وَإِنْ يَشَأْ أَنْ يَسْلُبَهُمْ إِيَّاهُ سَلَبَهُمْ وَكَانَ فُلانٌ مِنْهُمْ مُعَاراً.
