12 - حَدَّثَنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ زِيادِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الْهَمَذانيُّ رَضِىَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قالَ: حَدَّثَنا عَلِىُّ بْنُ إِبراهِيمِ بْنِ هاشِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَن عَلِىُّ بْنُ مَعبَدٍ، عَنِ الحُسَيْنِ بْنِ خالِدٍ قالَ: قُلْتُ لِلرِّضا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ: يا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ إِنّ‏ن النَّاسَ يَروُونَ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ‏ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ قالَ: إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ خَلَقَ آدَمَ عَلَى صُورَتِهِ؟ فَقالَ: قاتَلَهُمُ اللَّهُ حَذَفُوا أَوَّلَ الحَدِيثِ: إنَّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ‏ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ مَرَّ بِرَجُلَينِ يَتَسابانِ، فَسَمَعَ أَحَدَهُما لِصاحِبِهِ: قَبَّحَ اللَّهُ وَجهَكَ وَوَجْهَ مَن يُشبِهُكَ، فَقالَ‏ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ: لَهُ يا عَبْدِ اللَّه لا تَقُل هذا لأَخِيكَ، فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ خَلَقَ آدَمَ عَلَى صُورَتِهِ.
11-12 Ahmad ibn Ziyad ibn Ja’far al-Hamadani - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Ali ibn Ibrahim ibn Hashem quoted on the authority of his father, on the authority of Ali ibn Ma’bad, on the authority of Al-Hussein ibn Khalid that he told Al-Ridha (s), “O son of the Prophet of God! The people narrate that the Messenger of God (s) said, ‘God created Adam in His image.’ The Imam (s) said, ‘May God kill them! They have omitted the beginning part of the tradition. The Messenger of God (s) passed by two men who were verbally abusing each other. The Prophet (s) heard one of them say to his companion, ‘May God disfigure your face and of everyone who looks like you!’ The Prophet of God (s) said, ‘O Abdullah! Do not say this to your brother since indeed the Honorable the Exalted God created Adam in His image.’”
