1. We were told by Ahmad bin Muhammed bin Abdul-Rahman al-Maruzi al-Maqarri, that he said: We were told by Abu Amru, Muhammed bin Ja’far al-Maqarri al-Jarjani, that he said: We were told by Abu Bakr, Muhammed bin Hasan al-Mosuli, in Baghdad, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin ‘Asem al-Turayfi, that he said: We were told by Abu Zaid, Abbas bin Yazid bin Hussain bin Ali, the oculist, the servant of Zaid bin Ali, that he said: I was informed by Abu Yazid bin Hussain, that he said: I was told by Musa bin Ja’far, that he said: Al-Sadiq, peace be upon him, said with regards to the saying of Allah, Exalted and Glorious is He: «The Day when Allah will gather the Messengers and say: What were you responded with? They will say: We have no knowledge.» (5:109) He said: They will say: We have no knowledge of other than You. He said: Al-Sadiq, peace be upon him, said: The Qur’an, all of it, is reproach, and its internal meaning is an approximation.
