Therefore, a pen and paper were brought and Imam -asws dictated the principles of religion as follows: و روي عن الإمام الهمام أبي الحسن علي بن موسى الرضا ع في طوال هذه المعاني‏ جوابه ع للمأمون في جوامع الشريعة لما سأله جمع ذلك‏ – فَهَذَا أُصُولُ‏ الدِّينِ‏ – وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعالَمِينَ‏ وَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَى نَبِيِّهِ وَ آلِهِ وَ سَلَّمَ تَسْلِيماً.

And it is reported from the magnanimous Imam -asws Abu Al-Hassan Ali -asws Bin Musa Al-Reza ‑asws in length of this meaning, his -asws answer to Al-Mamoun (Al-Rashid) in summarising the Laws (of religion) of what he had asked him -asws to summarise (after finished describing these laws Imam Riza -asws says -see the last sentence at the end of the Hadith) – These are the ‘أُصُولُ‏ الدِّينِ’ (the principals of religion) All praise is due to Allah -azwj the Lord of the worlds.

All peace and blessings be upon the Lord -azwj ’s Messenger and his -saww family -asws . [1] رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّ الْمَأْمُونَ بَعَثَ الْفَضْلَ بْنَ سَهْلٍ ذَا الرِّئَاسَتَيْنِ‏ إِلَى الرِّضَا ع فَقَالَ لَهُ إِنِّي أُحِبُّ أَنْ تَجْمَعَ لِي مِنَ الْحَلَالِ وَ الْحَرَامِ وَ الْفَرَائِضِ وَ السُّنَنِ فَإِنَّكَ حُجَّةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى خَلْقِهِ وَ مَعْدِنُ الْعِلْمِ It is reported that Al-Mamoun dispatched Al-Fazl Bin Sahl Zul Riyasateyn (with the two governorships), to Al-Reza -asws .

He said to him, ‘I would love it if you -asws could summarise for me, from the Permissibles and the Prohibition, and the obligations and the Sunnah, for you ‑asws are a Divine Authority of Allah -azwj upon His -azwj creatures and the mine of knowledge’.
