حدثنا محمد بن موسى بن المتوكل، قال: حدثنا علي بن إبراهيم بن هاشم، عن أبيه، عن العباس بن عمرو الفقيمي، عن هشام بن الحكم
أن رجلا سأل أبا عبد الله عليه السلام عن الله تبارك وتعالى له رضى وسخط؟ قال: نعم، وليس ذلك على ما يوجد من المخلوقين وذلك أن الرضا والغضب دخال يدخل عليه فينقله من حال إلى حال معتمل مركب للأشياء فيه مدخل، وخالقنا لا مدخل للأشياء فيه، واحد، واحدي الذات، واحدي المعنى، فرضاه ثوابه وسخطه عقابه من غير شئ يتداخله فيهيجه وينقله من حال إلى حال فإن ذلك صفة المخلوقين العاجزين المحتاجين ، وهو تبارك وتعالى القوي العزيز لا حاجة له إلى شئ مما خلق وخلقه جميعا محتاجون إليه، إنما خلق الأشياء لا من حاجة ولا سبب اختراعا وابتداعا.
3. We were told by Muhammed bin Musa bin Mutawakkil, that he said: We were told by Ali bin Ibrahim bin Hashim, from his father, from Abbas bin Amru al-Fuqaymi, from Hisham bin Hakam, that a man asked Abu Abdillah, peace be upon him,
about Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He, if He has satisfaction and anger. He said: Yes, and that is not like what exists in creatures, and that is because satisfaction and anger are penetrators that enter into him and change him from one condition to another condition. He is disordered, composed, and things have an entrance to him. Our Creator has no entrance for things into Him; He is One, One in essence, One in meaning. Hence, His satisfaction is His reward, and His anger is His punishment, without anything that interlaces Him by which it agitates Him and moves Him from one condition to another condition, for that is indeed the characteristic of the created, incapable, the needy. Whereas He, Blessed and Exalted, is the Strong and Mighty. He has no need for anything from what He created, and all His creation are needy of Him. He only created things out of no need nor cause, of invention and innovation.
