بلغني أنك تقيس؟ قال: نعم قال: لا تقس فإن أول من قاس إبليس حين قال: خلقتني من نار وخلقته من طين، فقاس ما بين النار والطين، ولو قاس نورية آدم بنورية النار عرف فضل ما بين النورين، وصفاء أحدهما على الآخر Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ahmad ibn ‘Abd Allah al-’Aqili from ‘Isa ibn ‘Abd Allah al-Qurashi who has said the following: ‘Once, Abu Haneefa came to see Imam Abu ‘Abd Allah -asws who said to Abu Haneefa, ‘O Abu Haneefa, do you practice analogy [55] as I hear you do’?

Abu Haneefa replied, ‘Yes, I do practice analogy.’ The Imam -asws then said to him, ‘Do not practice it; the first person who used analogy was Iblis when he said, “Lord, you have created me from fire and created him from clay.’ He analogised fire with clay. If he had compared ‘نورية’ the light in Adam – as and light of ‘النار’ the fire, he would have learned about the difference between the two lights and the excellence of one over the other.’ [56] [1] Al-Kafi, Vol. 2, H.
