[15] عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ وَ وُهَيْبِ بْنِ حَفْصٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ إِنَّ لِلَّهِ عِلْمَيْنِ عِلْمٌ مَكْنُونٌ مَخْزُونٌ لَا يَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا هُوَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ يَكُونُ الْبَدَاءُ وَ عِلْمٌ عَلَّمَهُ مَلَائِكَتَهُ وَ رُسُلَهُ وَ أَنْبِيَاءَهُ فَنَحْنُ نَعْلَمُهُ .
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Mohammed Bin Isa, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Ja’far Bin Usman, from Sama’at, from Abu Baseer, and Wuheyb Bin Hafs, from Abu Baseer, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah -asws having said: ‘For Allah -azwj there are two (types of) Knowledge – a Knowledge Concealed, Treasured, none know it except for Him -azwj .
From that is the occurrence of the Changing of Allah -azwj ’s Decision; and a Knowledge Taught to His -azwj Angels and His -azwj Rasools -as , and His -azwj Prophets. So we -asws know it’. [16] مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ مَا بَدَا لِلَّهِ فِي شَيْءٍ إِلَّا كَانَ فِي عِلْمِهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَبْدُوَ لَهُ .
Mohammed Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Mohammed, from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Al Hassan Bin Mahboub, from Abdullah Bin Sinan, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah -asws having said: ‘Allah -azwj did not Change (His -azwj Decision) regarding anything except that it was always in His -azwj Knowledge before that He -azwj would be Changing it’.
[17] عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ فَرْقَدٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ عُثْمَانَ الْجُهَنِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَمْ يَبْدُ لَهُ مِنْ جَهْلٍ . From him, from Ahmad, from Al Hassan Bin Ali Bin Fazzal, from Dawood Bin Farqad, from Amro Bin Usman Al Juhny, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah -asws having said: ‘Allah -azwj , (His -azwj Decision) does not change for Him -azwj due to ignorance’.
