18 - حدثنا علي بن أحمد بن عبد الله بن أحمد بن أبي عبد الله البرقي رحمه الله، عن أبيه، عن جده أحمد بن أبي عبد الله، عن أبيه، عن عبد الله بن بحر، عن أبي - أيوب الخزاز، عن محمد بن مسلم، قال: سألت أبا جعفر عليه السلام عما يروون أن الله عز وجل خلق آدم على صورته (١) فقال: هي صورة محدثة مخلوقة، اصطفاها الله واختارها على سائر الصور المختلفة، فأضافها إلى نفسه كما أضاف الكعبة إلى نفسه والروح إلى نفسه. فقال: ﴿بيتي﴾ (٢) وقال: ﴿ونفخت فيه من روحي﴾ .
18. `Ali ibn Ahmad ibn `Abd Allah ibn Ahmad ibn Abu `Abd Allah al-Barqi (may Allah have mercy on him) said, on the authority of his father, on the authority of his grandfather Ahmad ibn Abu `Abd Allah, on the authority of his father, on the authority of `Abd Allah ibn Bahr, on the authority of Abu Ayyub al-Khazzaz, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Muslim that I asked Abu Ja`far al-Baqir about the claim that Allah, the Mighty and High, created Adam
in His Image; hence, he said: That was a recently created image. Allah favored it, and chose it over all different images. Then He attributed it to Himself like He attributed the Ka`bah and the Sprit to Himself. Thus, He said: My House.1 And said: And when I breathed into him My Spirit.2
