4-98 حدثنا أبي رضي الله عنه قال: حدثنا محمد بن أحمد بن علي بن الصلت، عن أحمد بن محمد بن خالد، عن أبيه، عن محمد بن سنان، عن يوسف بن عمران، عن ميثم بن يعقوب بن شعيب، عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام قال: أوحى الله عز وجل إلى آدم عليه السلام أني سأجمع لك الكلام في أربع كلمات، قال: يا رب وما هن؟ قال: واحدة لي، وواحدة لك، وواحدة فيما بيني وبينك، وواحدة فيما بينك وبين الناس، فقال: يا رب بينهن لي حتى أعلمهن، فقال: أما التي لي فتعبدني [و] لا تشرك بي شيئا، وأما التي لك فاجزيك بعملك أحوج ما تكون إليه وأما التي بيني وبينك فعليك الدعاء وعلي الاجابة، وأما التي بينك وبين الناس فترضى للناس ما ترضاه لنفسك

4-98 (The compiler of the book narrated) that his father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Muhammad ibn Ali ibn al-Salt quoted Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid, on the authority of his father, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Sin’an, on the authority of Yusuf ibn Imran, on the authority of Maysam ibn Yaqoob ibn Shoayb that Aba Abdullah as-Sadiq (MGB) said, “The Honorable the Exalted God revealed to Adam (MGB) that He would summarize everything for him in four sayings. Adam (MGB) said, ‘O Lord! What are they?’ God said, ‘One of them is for Me; one is for you; one is between Me and you and one is between you and the people.’ Adam (MGB) said, ‘O my Lord! Please tell them to me so that I may learn them.’ God said, ‘The one that is for Me is that you should worship Me and do not ascribe any partners for Me. The one which is for you is that I will give the recompense of your work to you when you are very needy for it. The one which is between you and Me is that you should supplicate to Me and I will answer. The one that is between you and the people is that you should accept for yourself whatever you accept for the people.’”

4-99 حدثنا أحمد بن الحسن القطان، وأحمد بن محمد بن الهيثم العجلي، ومحمد ابن أحمد السناني رضي الله عنه قالوا: حدثنا أحمد بن يحيى بن زكريا القطان قال: حدثنا موسى بن إسحاق قال: حدثنا أبوإبراهيم الترجماني قال: حدثنا صالح بن بشير أبوبشر المري قال: سمعت الحسن يحدث عن أنس بن مالك قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله فيما يروي عن ربه جل جلاله أنه قال: أربع خصال واحدة لي، وواحدة لك وواحدة فيما بيني وبينك، وواحدة فيما بينك وبين عبادي، فأما التي لي فتعبدني [و] لا تشرك بي شيئا، وأما التي لك فما عملت من خير جزيتك به، وأما التي بيني وبينك فمنك الدعاء وعلي الاجابة، وأما التي بينك وبين عبادي فأن ترضى لهم ما ترضى لنفسك. ولم يذكر آدم في هذا الحديث

4-99 Ahmad ibn al-Hassan al-Qat’tan, Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-Haysam al-Ajali and Muhammad ibn Ahmad al-Sin’ani - may God be pleased with them - narrated that Ahmad ibn Yahya ibn Zakaria al-Qat’tan quoted Musa ibn Ishaq, on the authority of Abu Ibrahim al-Tarjomani, on the authority of Salih ibn Bashir Abu Bashar al-Mari that he had heard al-Hassan quote on the authority of Anas ibn Malik quoted that God’s Prophet (MGB) said, “God - may His Majesty be Exalted - said, ‘There are four characteristics as follows: one is for Me; one is for you; one is between Me and you and one is between you and My servants. The one that is for Me is that you should worship Me and do not ascribe any partners for Me. The one which is for you is to do good deeds and I will reward you for it. The one which is between you and Me is that you should supplicate to Me and I will answer. The one that is between you and My servants is that you should accept for yourself whatever you accept for people.’ There is no mention of Adam in this tradition.”
