The Source of Traditions on Imam al-Riḍā (Vol 1) · Hadith 138 (#Ḥadīth #30)

30 - حَدَّثَنا عَلِىِّ بْنِ أَحْمَد بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِمْران الدَّقَّاق رَضِىَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قالَ: حَدَّثَنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبيالكُوفِيِّ قالَ: حَدَّثَنا مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيل البَرمَكيِّ قالَ: حَدَّثَني الحُسَيْنِ بْنِ الحَسَن قالَ: حَدَّثَني بَكْرِ بْنِ زياد، عَنْ عَبْد العَزِيز بْنِ المُهْتَدِيّ، قالَ: سَأَلْتُ الرِّضَا a.sُ عَنِ التَّوْحِيدِ، فَقَالَ: كُلُّ مَنْ قَرَأَ قُلْ هُوَاللَّهُ أَحَدٌ وَآمَنَ بِهَا فَقَدْ عَرَفَ التَّوْحِيدَ، قُلْتُ: كَيْفَ يَقْرَؤُهَا؟ قَالَ: كَمَا يَقْرَؤُهَا النَّاسُ، وَزَادَ فِيهِ «كَذَلِكَ اللَّهُ رَبِّي كَذَلِكَ اللَّهُ رَبِّي كَذَلِكَ اللَّهُ رَبِّي» - ثَلاثاً -.

11-30 Ali ibn Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Imran ad-Daqqaq - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Muhammad ibn Abi Abdillah al-Kufi quoted on the authority of Muhammad ibn Isma’il al-Barmaki, on the authority of Al-Hussein ibn Al-Hassan, on the authority of Bakr ibn Ziyad, on the authority of Abdul Aziz al-Mohtadi, “I asked Al-Ridha about the Unity. The Imam (s) said, ‘Whoever recites (the Quranic verse) ‘Say, He is Allah, the One and Only’ and believes in it has recognized Unity.’ Then I asked, ‘How should we recite it?’ The Imam (s) said, ‘ Recite it as the people recite it.’ The Imam (s) also added, ‘Kathaleka Rabbi. Kathaleka Rabbi’ (This is how my Lord is. This is how my Lord is)’ for three times.’”
