4 I -azwj was a Hidden Treasure A famous Hadi-e-Qudsi which is frequently quoted and we have found in the comments under Ahadith says: ‘كنت كنزاً مخفياً فأحببت أن أعرف فخلقت الخلق لكي أعرف’ (I -azwj was a hidden treasure, so I -azwj Loved to be known, so I -azwj Created creation so that I -azwj could be known) has not been reported in any of our Ahadith compilations, for example it comes as a comment in Mashariq Al-Anwar Al-Yaqeen Fi Israr Al-Momineen -asws , and gives reference to Bihar Al-Anwaar, Vol.

6, مشارق أنوار اليقين في أسرار أمير المؤمنين عليه السلام، ص: 41 [1] ( 1) بحار الأنوار: 87/ 199 ح 6. When we look into Bihar Al-Anwaar vol. 6, there it comes as a comment and not as a Hadith «كنت‏ كنزا مخفيا فأحببت أن أعرف، فخلقت ال لأعرف» [11] . For this we again present independent research, related to this Hadith in Appendix VIII .

Appendix I: Don’t reject a Hadith but return it محمد بن إدريس في آخر ( السرائر ) نقلا من كتاب مسائل الرجال لعلي بن محمد ( عليه السلام ) ، أن محمد بن علي بن عيسى كتب إليه ، يسأله عن العلم المنقول إلينا عن آبائك وأجداد ( عليهم السلام) ، قد اختلف علينا فيه ، فكيف العمل به على اختلافه ؟ أو الرد إليك فيما اختلف فيه ؟ فكتب ( عليه السلام ) : ما علمتم أنه قولنا فالزموه ، وما لم تعلموا فردوه إلينا .

Muhammad Bin Idrees at the end of his letter, has copied from the book Masaael Al-Rijaal to Ali Bin Muhammad -asws : Muhammad Bin Isa had written to him -asws asking, ‘About the knowledge that gets copied over to us from your forefathers -asws , there are differences for us therein, how shall we act upon those if there are differences?

Or shall we return them to you -asws when there are differences in them?’ Imam -asws wrote back: ‘When you come to know that it is our -asws statement it necessitates you to act by that, and that which you do not know, return them back to us -asws ’.
