11. Ahmad ibn Ziyad ibn Ja`far al-Hamadani said: `Ali ibn Ibrahim ibn Hashim, on the authority of His father, on the authority of `Ali ibn Ma`bad, on the authority of al-Husayn ibn Khalid that I said to al-Rida ﷺ:

“O Son of the Messenger of Allah! Verily, the people relate that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Verily, Allah created Adam ﷺ in His Image.”” He replied: May Allah kill them! They have certainly removed the first part of the tradition. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by two men who were cursing each other. He ﷺ heard one of them say to the other: “May Allah make your face and the one who resembles you ugly!” He ﷺ said: “O servant of Allah! Do not say this to your brother for, verily Allah, the Mighty and High, created Adam in His Image.”
