سَهْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ قُتَيْبَةَ عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يَقُولُ إِنِّي لَسْتُ كُلَّ كَلَامِ الْحَكِيمِ أَتَقَبَّلُ إِنَّمَا أَتَقَبَّلُ هَوَاهُ وَ هَمَّهُ فَإِنْ كَانَ هَوَاهُ وَ هَمُّهُ فِي رِضَايَ جَعَلْتُ هَمَّهُ تَقْدِيساً وَ تَسْبِيحاً.
