Chapter 8 | When Allah, the Majestic, the Glorious, Wills to Create a Believer
1ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ الْحُلْوَانِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْمَاعِيلَ الصَّيْقَلِ الرَّازِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ إِنَّ فِي الْجَنَّةِ لَشَجَرَةً تُسَمَّى الْمُزْنَ فَإِذَا أَرَادَ الله أَنْ يَخْلُقَ مُؤْمِناً أَقْطَرَ مِنْهَا قَطْرَةً فَلا تُصِيبُ بَقْلَةً وَلا ثَمَرَةً أَكَلَ مِنْهَا مُؤْمِنٌ أَوْ كَافِرٌ إِلا أَخْرَجَ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مِنْ صُلْبِهِ مُؤْمِناً.
1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn Faddal from Ibrahim ibn Muslim al-Hulwani from abu Isma’il al-Sayqal al-Razi from Abu ‘Abdillah who has said the following: “In paradise there is a tree called al-Muzn. When Allah wants to create a believer He makes a drop to drip from it. It then falls on vegetable or fruit that either a believer or unbeliever then consumes for food but Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, brings out a believer from his back.”
