H 643, Ch. 41, h 1 Muhammad ibn abu 'Abdallah and Muhammad ibn al-Hassan have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad and Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, both of them from al-Hassan ibn al-'Abbas ibn al-Harish from abu Ja'far al-Thani (a.s.) who has said the following.

"Abu 'Abdallah (a.s.) has said, 'Once while my father was walking around the Ka'ba for Tawaf a man who had covered his face partially with his turban suddenly came by. He caused discontinuation in the Tawaf of the Imam (a.s.) and took him (a.s.) to a house adjacent to al-Safa. He sent for me also and then we were there three of us. He said, "Welcome, the child of the Messenger of Allah.

He then placed his hand over my head and said, 'May Allah place blessings in you, the trustworthy one before Allah after his ancestors. O abu Ja'far (a.s.), if you like you may tell me, and if you like I can tell you. If you like you may ask me and if you want I will ask you. If you would like affirm what I will say and if you would want I will affirm what you will say.

The Imam (a.s.) said, "I like all of it." He then said, "You must never let your tongue answer me with something that is otherwise in your conscious." The Imam (a.s.) said, "Such would do one in whose heart there would exist two kinds of knowledge, one opposing the other. Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High, disdains to have a knowledge that is not harmonious." He then said, "This is my question. You just explained one part of it.

"Tell me about this knowledge that is so harmonious and without difference. Who has (knows) it?" The Imam (a.s.) said, "The whole of knowledge is before Allah, Majestic is Whose Name. The knowledge that people need is with the executor of the will of (prophets).
