4323 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ قَالَ : قُلْتُ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ اَلثَّانِي عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَوْلُهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ اَللَّيْلِ إِذٰا يَغْشىٰ وَ اَلنَّهٰارِ إِذٰا تَجَلّٰى وَ قَوْلُهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ اَلنَّجْمِ إِذٰا هَوىٰ وَ مَا أَشْبَهَ هَذَا فَقَالَ "إِنَّ اَللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يُقْسِمُ مِنْ خَلْقِهِ بِمَا يَشَاءُ وَ لَيْسَ لِخَلْقِهِ أَنْ يُقْسِمُوا إِلاَّ بِهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ".
Hadith.4323 - It is narrated from Ali ibn Mahziyar that he said: I asked Abu Ja'far al-Thani 
about the saying of Allah (swt), the Almighty and Glorious;
"By the night when it covers, and by the day when it appears" (Surah Al-Lail 92:1-2) and His saying, "By the star when it falls" (Surah An-Najm 53:1), and other similar verses.
Imam said: "Indeed, Allah (swt), the Almighty and Glorious, may swear by whatever He (swt) wills from His (swt) creation, but His (swt) creation is only permitted to swear by Him (swt), the Almighty and Glorious."
