Hadith 131

From Al-Husayn Bin Khalid who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah-asws about the Words of Allah-azwj: and there does not fall a leaf except He Knows it, nor a seed in the darkness of the earth, nor any wet nor dry except it is in an apparent Book [6: 59]. He-asws said: ‘The leaf is the miscarriage falling from the belly of its mother because the release of the birth’. He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘And His-azwj Words: nor a seed? ’ He-asws said: ‘It means child in the belly of its mother when it is a person and falls from before the birth’. I said, ‘His-azwj Words: nor any wet? ’ He-asws said: ‘It means the lump when it settles in the womb before its creation is complete, before it is transformed’. He (the narrator) said, ‘His-azwj Words: nor dry? ’ He-asws said: ‘The complete child’. I said, ‘in an apparent Book? ’ He-asws said: ‘In an apparent Imam-asws’’. [133]
