Chapter 28 | Negation of Space, Time, Stillness, Motion, Descending, Ascending, and Transference from Allah

9 - حدثنا محمد بن الحسن بن أحمد بن الوليد رحمه الله، قال: حدثنا محمد بن يحيى العطار، قال: حدثنا الحسين بن الحسن بن أبان، عن محمد بن أورمة، عن ابن محبوب، عن صالح بن حمزة، عن أبان، عن أسد ، عن المفضل بن عمر، عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام، قال: من زعم أن الله في شئ أو من شئ أو على شئ فقد أشرك، لو كان الله عز وجل على شئ لكان محمولا، ولو كان في شئ لكان محصورا، ولو كان من شئ لكان محدثا.

9. Muhammad ibn al-Hasan ibn Ahmad ibn al-Walid said: Muhammad ibn Yahya al-`Attar said: al-Husayn ibn al-Hasan ibn Aban said, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Auramah, on the authority of Ibn Mahbub, on the authority of Salih ibn Hamzah, on the authority of Aban, on the authority of Asad, on the authority of al-Mufaddal ibn `Umar that Abu `Abd Allah al-Sadiq said: Whoever claims that Allah is in a thing, from a thing, or on a thing, has become an infidel. If Allah, the Mighty and High, were on something then He would have been carried. If He were in something then He would have been surrounded, and if He were from something then He would have been caused.
