4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from ‘Udhayna from Zurara from abu Ja’far (a.s.) who has said the following: “I asked him (a.s.) about the words of Allah, the Majestic, the Glorious, ‘They are humble before Allah and they do not consider anything as partners of Allah.’ The Imam said, ‘Humbleness comes from the nature with which Allah has created all people and there is no change in the creation of Allah.’ The Imam also said, ‘He created them with the ability to know Him.’ Zurara has said, ‘I then asked him about the words of Allah, the Majestic, the Glorious: “(Consider), when your Lord took from the backs of the children of Adam all of their offspring. He asked them to bear a testimony. (Testimony to the fact that) when He asked them all, ‘Am 1 not your Lord?’ They all said, ‘Yes, You are our Lord.’” (7:172) The Imam said, “This happened when Allah took all descendents of Adam - who were to be born to the Day of Judgment - out from his back. They all came out in the form of small particles. He then introduced and showed Himself to them. Had this not happened no one could know his Lord.” The Imam said, “The Messenger of Allah has said, ‘Every newborn is born with the nature (to believe in Allah). ’ It means (He created them) with knowledge that Allah, the Majestic, the Glorious, is his/her Creator and so is His words, ‘When you ask them, “Who has created the heavens and the earth?” They will certainly say, ‘Allah has created them.””” (31:25) Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ibn Faddal from abu Jamila from Muhammad al-Halabi from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “About the words of Allah, the Majestic, the Glorious, ‘. . . the creation of Allah (had a certain) nature with which He created all people. . . .’ (30:30), the Imam said, ‘He has created them with belief in Oneness of Allah in their nature.’”
IsnādAli ibn Ibrahim a rapporté de son père, de Ibn Abi Umeyr, de Ibn Udhayna, de Zurara, de Abu Ja'far (que la paix soit sur lui)
J'ai demandé à Abu Ja'far (que la paix soit sur lui) au sujet de la parole d'Allah, le Très-Haut : "Hunafā' Lillāh, n'étant pas associateurs à Lui". Il a dit : "L'hunafā' (les monothéistes) sont une disposition naturelle avec laquelle Allah a créé les gens, sans altération de la création d'Allah. Il les a créés pour Le reconnaître. Et j'ai demandé au sujet de la parole d'Allah : "Et lorsque ton Seigneur tira une descendance des reins des fils d'Adam et les fit témoigner sur eux-mêmes : Ne suis-Je pas votre Seigneur ?" Ils dirent : "Certes, nous en témoignons". Il a fait sortir de la descendance d'Adam leur postérité jusqu'au Jour de la Résurrection, et ils sortiront comme des fourmis, Il les a fait se reconnaître et se voir eux-mêmes. Et si ce n'était pas le cas, personne ne reconnaîtrait son Seigneur. Et le Messager d'Allah (que la paix soit sur lui et sa famille) a dit : "Chaque nouveau-né naît sur la Fitra (disposition naturelle), c'est-à-dire la reconnaissance qu'Allah est leur Créateur. Ainsi que Sa parole : "Et si tu leur demandes : Qui a créé les cieux et la terre ? Ils diront : Allah". Ali ibn Ibrahim a rapporté de son père, de Ibn Faddal, de Ibn Abi Jamilah, de Muhammad al-Halabi, de Abu Abdullah (que la paix soit sur lui) au sujet de la parole d'Allah, le Très-Haut : "La disposition naturelle qu'Allah a instaurée pour les gens". Il a dit : "Il les a créés pour l'unicité".
