Hadith 220

‘Al Mahasin’ – Muhammad Bin Isa, from Abu Hashim Al Ja’fary who said, ‘Al-Ash’as Bin Hatim informed him that he asked Al-Reza-asws about something from the Tawheed, so he-asws said: ‘Do you not read the Quran? ’ I said, ‘Yes’. He-asws said: ‘Read: Visions cannot comprehend Him, and He Comprehends the visions [6: 103]’. So, I read. He-asws said: ‘And what are the visions? ’ I said, ‘Visions of the eyes’. He-asws said: ‘No. But rather, it means the imaginations. The imaginations do not realise His-azwj Qualitative State, and He-azwj Realises every understanding’’. [156]
Note –
‘Al Mahasin’ – Muhammad Bin Isa, from Abu Hashim, from Abu Ja’far-asws – approximate to it except he-asws said: ‘The ‘visions’ over here are imaginations of the servants, and the imaginations are more than the visions, and He-azwj Realisesd the imaginations while the imaginations cannot realise Him-azwj’.
