There are several conversations of God with Jesus which shall be highlighted as follow: Imam Ja’far Sadiq (‘a) said: Among things with which God, the Blessed and Exalted, exhorted Jesus (‘a) was: ‘O Jesus! I am your Lord and the Lord of your fathers. My Name is the One (al-Wahid), and I am one (Ahad) and single (Mutafarrid) in creating all things. All things are My handiwork, and all My creations shall return to Me.

(1) It is reported that Abu ‘Abd Allah [Imam Sadiq] (‘a) said: J esus the son of Mary (‘a) ascended [to heaven] clad in garments of wool spun by Mary, woven by Mary, and sewn by Mary. When he was brought up to heaven it was called: ‘O Jesus! Cast off from yourself the finery of the world. (2) God confided to Jesus the son of Mary (‘a): O Jesus!

Cut yourself off from fatal desires and part with every desire that keeps you away from Me, and know that you are near me at the station of a trusted Apostle (rasul), so beware of Me. (3) It is reported that one day Jesus, Peace be upon him, came upon severe rain and thunder, so he sought a place of shelter. He saw a tent at a distance and came to it. There he saw a woman in it, so he turned away from it. Suddenly, he saw a cave in a mountain, and when he arrived there, he saw a lion in it.

So he rested his hand against the cave, and said: My God! Everything has a shelter, but You put no shelter for me. Then God, the Supreme, revealed to him: Your shelter is in the abode of My Mercy. By My Greatness, on the Resurrection Day, verily, I will marry you to a hundred houris created by My hands, and verily for your wedding, I will lay out a feast for four thousand years, each day of which is like the lifetime of the entire world.

And I will command a crier to cry out: Where are the ascetics of the world? Be present at the wedding of the ascetic Jesus the son of Mary! (4) One of the Imams [Imam Sadiq or Imam Baqir] said: Verily, a man of the Children of Israel exerted himself for forty nights. Then he called God, but He did not answer him. Then he came to Jesus complaining to him and asking him to pray. So Jesus purified himself and prayed to God, the Supreme.
