The Sufficient (Vol 1) · Hadith 383 (#Ḥadīth #4)

4ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ الْمُخْتَارِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الْهَمْدَانِيِّ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ الْحَسَنِ الْعَلَوِيِّ جَمِيعاً عَنِ الْفَتْحِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْجُرْجَانِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ قَالَ إِنَّ لله إِرَادَتَيْنِ وَمَشِيئَتَيْنِ إِرَادَةَ حَتْمٍ وَإِرَادَةَ عَزْمٍ يَنْهَى وَهُوَ يَشَاءُ وَيَأْمُرُ وَهُوَ لا يَشَاءُ أَ وَمَا رَأَيْتَ أَنَّهُ نَهَى آدَمَ وَزَوْجَتَهُ أَنْ يَأْكُلا مِنَ الشَّجَرَةِ وَشَاءَ ذَلِكَ وَلَوْ لَمْ يَشَأْ أَنْ يَأْكُلا لَمَا غَلَبَتْ مَشِيئَتُهُمَا مَشِيئَةَ الله تَعَالَى وَأَمَرَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَنْ يَذْبَحَ إِسْحَاقَ وَلَمْ يَشَأْ أَنْ يَذْبَحَهُ وَلَوْ شَاءَ لَمَا غَلَبَتْ مَشِيئَةُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مَشِيئَةَ الله تَعَالَى.

4. It is narrated from Ali ibn Ibrahim from al-Mukhtar ibn Muhammad al-Hamadani and Muhammad ibn al-Hassan from ‘Abdallah ibn al-Hassan al-‘Alawi altogether from al-Fath ibn Yazid al-Jurjani from abu al-Hassan who has said the following. “Allah has two wills and two wishes. He has a definite will and an intended will. He prohibits but He wants it. He commands but He does not want it. Consider that He prohibited Adam and his spouse from eating of the tree but He wanted them to eat. Had He not wanted their wish would not have surpassed Allah’s wish. He commanded Ibrahim to slaughter Ishaq but He did not want it to happen. Had He wanted it the wish of Ibrahim would not have surpassed the wish of Allah, the Most High.”
