`Ali b. Ahmad b. Musa رضي الله عنه narrated to us. He said: Muhammad b. Ya`qub narrated to me. He said: `Ali b. Muhammad b. `Abdullah narrated to me from Ibrahim b. Ishaq al-Ahmar from Muhammad b. Sulayman al-Daylami from his father. He said: I spoke to Abi `Abdillah al-Sadiq عليه السلام, describing the worship, religion, virtue, and so on of a person. He said: So, he said: How is his intellect? So, I said: I do not know. So, he said: Surely, good deeds are at the proportion of one’s intellect. Surely, a man from the Children of Israel would worship Allah on a green, verdant island with any trees and pure water. Then, an angel from among the angels passed by him and said: “O Lord! Show me the rewards of the deeds of this servant of Yours.” So, Allah showed that to him, and the angel considered it minor. So, Allah revealed to him, telling him to accompany him. So, the angel came to him in the form of a human. So, he said to him: “Who are you?” He said: “I am a worshiping man. We were informed about your position and your worship in this place, so I came to worship Allah with you.” He was with him on that day, so at its end, the angel said to him: “This place of yours is a retreat.” He said: “If only our Lord had a beast. If our Lord had a donkey, we would have herded it in this place, for this grass is so luscious that it could get lost in it.” So, the angel said to him: “Does your Lord not have a donkey?” So, he said: “If He had a donkey, this grass would not go to waste.” So, Allah revealed to the angel: “Surely, I will only reward him in proportion to his intellect.” Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم never spoke to the worshipers at the level of his own intellect. He said: The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم said: We the prophets were commanded to speak to the people at the level of their intellect.
