The Continuity of the Divine Testament Since the Time of Adam عليه السلام
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ الْوَلِيدِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ أَبِي الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبَانٍ عَنْ ضُرَيْسٍ الْكُنَاسِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فِي قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ هالِكٌ إِلَّا وَجْهَهُ قَالَ نَحْنُ الْوَجْهُ الَّذِي يُؤْتَى اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مِنْهُ.
Narrated to us Muhammad bin Hasan bin Ahmad bin Walid رضي الله عنه that he said: Narrated to us Muhammad bin Hasan as-Saffar from Muhammad bin Husain ibn Abil Khattab from Ja’far bin Basheer from Amr bin Aban from Dhuraith Kunnasi from Abi Abdullah عليه السلام regarding the words of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime: Everything is perishable except His face. (28:55) “We are that face through which Allah can be reached (is recognized).”
