2. My father said: Sa`d ibn `Abd Allah said: Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn `Isa said, on the authority of Ibn Fuddal, on the authority of al-Halabi and Zurarah, that Abu `Abd Allah said: “Verily, Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, is the Alone, the Needless, without an interior. Verily, the Spirit is a creation from His Creations. It is a helper, aid, and a source of strength. Allah places it is in the hearts of the messengers and the Believers.”
