1 - حدثنا أبو الحسن محمد بن سعيد بن عزيز السمرقندي - الفقيه بأرض بلخ قال: حدثنا أبو أحمد محمد بن محمد الزاهد السمرقندي بإسناده رفعه إلى الصادق عليه السلام، أنه سأله رجل فقال له: إن أساس الدين التوحيد والعدل، و علمه كثير، ولا بد لعاقل منه، فاذكر ما يسهل الوقوف عليه ويتهيأ حفظه، فقال عليه السلام:
أما التوحيد فأن لا تجوز على ربك ما جاز عليك، وأما العدل فأن لا تنسب إلى خالقك ما لا ملك عليه.
