4. And with the same chain of transmission, on the authority of al-Hasan ibn Mahbub, on the authority of `Ali ibn Ri’ab on the authority of Burayd al-`Ijli that Abu `Abd Allah al-Sadiq ﷺ said: The Messenger of Allah (s.a) joined a gathering of his companions, and asked them: “Why have you gathered?” They replied: “We have gathered to mention our Lord and to ponder upon His Greatness.” Thus, the Prophet ﷺ said; “You will never be able to understand His Greatness.”
