9. Muhammad ibn al-Hasan ibn Ahmad ibn al-Walid said: al-Husayn ibn al-Hasan ibn Aban said, on the authority of al-Husayn ibn Sa`id, on the authority of Fadalah ibn Ayyub, on the authority of Aban ibn `Uthman, on the authority of Hamzah ibn Muhammad al-Tayyar

that I asked Abu `Abd Allah al-Sadiq about the Word of Allah, the Mighty and High: And verily they were called upon to make obeisance while yet they were safe. He said: “The capable are capable of fulfilling the obligations that have been imposed on them. And the capable are capable of refraining from the prohibitions that were imposed on them. They will be tried through both obligation and prohibition.” Then he added, “There is nothing which has been commanded or prohibited by Allah, the Exalted, the Mighty and High, that is not a trial and predestined.”
