The Imam replied: ،¥Such men are not among those whom God will blame (for their failure in finding truth) verily, Allah has said: ،¥. . .

therefore take heed, O you have eyes.،¦ " (al-Hƒmashr, 59:2) Ahmad ibn Idris (،X) Muhammad ibn Hƒmasan (،X) Abi Muhammad ar-Razi (،X) Sayf ibn ،¥Amayrah (،X) Is'hƒuaq ibn ،¥Ammar (،X) Abu ،¥Abdillah (p.b.u.h.) as saying: "One who has reason has faith.

And he who has faith will have a place in Paradise."

There was a person from Bani Isra'.l who used to worship God devotedly in an island full of lush green and clear water. An angel happened to watch that person, asked God, ،¥Kindly show me the rewards meant for that person.،¦ When the angel was shown the rewards by God, they appeared to be very little to him. Upon this God suggested to him to go and stay with that person (for some time). The angel appeared before that man in human guise.

The man asked the angel, ،¥Who are you?،¦ The angel replied, ،¥I am also one of the devotees of God and I have heard about this place and your worship in it. Therefore, I have come to you so that I can also pray to Almighty God with you.،¦ So the angel stayed with him for a day.
