11. My father reported that Sa`d ibn `Abd Allah, on the authority of Ibrahim ibn Hashim, on the authority of Ibn `Umayr, on the authority of Hisham ibn al-Hakam, on the authority of Mansur alSayqal that Abu `Abd Allah al-Sadiq said: “Verily, Allah is Knowledge as there is no ignorance in Him. Allah is Life as there is no death in Him. And Allah is Light as there is no darkness in Him.”
