حدثنا عبد الواحد بن محمد بن عبدوس النيسابوري العطار قال: حدثنا علي ابن محمد بن قتيبة قال: حدثنا حمدان بن سليمان النيسابوري، عن عبد السلام بن صالح الهروي قال: سمعت أبا الحسن علي بن موسى الرضا عليهما السلام، يقول: أفعال العباد مخلوقة. فقلت له: يا ابن رسول الله وما معنى " مخلوقة "؟ قال: مقدرة.


51. We were told by Ahmad bin Muhammed bin Yahya al-‘Attar, that he said: We were told by my father, from Hussain bin Hasan bin Aban, from Muhammed bin Ourma, from Muhammed bin Khalid, from Harun, from Mufaddal, from Sa’d al-Khaffaf, from Abu Ja’far, peace be upon him, that he said: Hearts are (of) four (types): a heart in which there is hypocrisy and faith; an overturned heart; a heart that is dispositioned; and a heart that is radiant and lightening. I said: What is the radiant? He said: Within it is like the shape of a lamp. As for the dispositioned, it is the heart of a hypocrite. As for the radiant, it is the heart of a believer; if Allah, Exalted and Glorious is He, gives him, he tanks, and if He tests him, he is patient. As for the overturned, it is the heart of a polytheist. He then recited this verse: «Is the one who walks while overturned on his face, more guided, or the one who walks uprightly on a straight path?» (67:22) As for the heart in which there is faith and hypocrisy, they are a people who were in Ta’if; if the time of one of them approaches firstly to his hypocrisy, he is to perish, and if it approaches firstly to his faith, he is to be saved.
