7722 - Abu Sa'id al-Ashajj narrated to us, Abu Usamah narrated to us from Juwaybir, from al-Dahhak regarding: "And they have fabricated for Him sons and daughters," he said: "They described Him."
7723 - My father narrated to us, Nasr ibn 'Ali narrated to us, my father narrated to us, Khalid ibn Qays narrated to us from Qatadah: regarding His saying: "And they have fabricated for Him sons and daughters," he said: "They lied about Him. As for the Jews and the Christians, they said: 'We are the sons of Allah and His beloved ones,' and they lied in that. As for the polytheists of the Arabs, they used to worship al-Lat and al-'Uzza and would say: 'Al-'Uzza is the daughter of Allah,' so Allah proved them liars and denied them from what they fabricated."
His saying: "sons and daughters without knowledge"
7724 - Ahmad ibn 'Uthman ibn Hakim informed us in what he wrote to me, Ahmad ibn al-Mufaddal narrated to us, Asbat narrated to us from al-Suddi: regarding His saying: "And they have fabricated for Him sons and daughters without knowledge," he says: "They cut/assigned for Him sons and daughters. The Arabs said: 'The angels are the daughters of Allah,' and the Jews and the Christians said: 'The Messiah and 'Uzayr are the sons of Allah.'"
7725 - Abu Yazid al-Qaratisi informed us in what he wrote to me, Asbagh ibn al-Faraj narrated to us, he said: I heard 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Zayd ibn Aslam saying regarding His saying: "And they have fabricated for Him sons and daughters without knowledge," he said: "They fabricated, meaning they lied. There were no sons or daughters for Allah. The Christians said: 'The Messiah is the son of Allah,' and the polytheists said: 'The angels are the daughters of Allah,' so all of them fabricated the lie, and 'kharaga' (fabricated) means 'ikhtaraqa' (invented)."
His saying: "Exalted is He"
7726 - Abu Sa'id al-Ashajj narrated to us, Hafs ibn Ghiyath narrated to us from Hajjaj, from Ibn Abi Mulaykah, from Ibn 'Abbas: regarding His saying: "Subhan Allah" (Exalted is Allah), he said: "Allah's sanctification of Himself from evil." Then 'Umar said to 'Ali, may Allah be pleased with them both, while his companions were with him: "'La ilaha illa Allah' (There is no god but Allah) - we have already known it, so what is 'Subhan Allah'?" 'Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, said to him: "A word that Allah loved for Himself and was pleased with, and He loved that it be spoken."
7727 - My father narrated to us, Ibn Nufayl narrated to us, al-Nadr ibn Musa narrated to us, he said: A man asked Maymun ibn Mihran about 'Subhan Allah', and he said: "A name with which Allah is glorified, and by which He is declared far removed from evil."
7728 - My father narrated to me, Sahl ibn 'Uthman narrated to us, Abu Malik - meaning 'Amr ibn Hashim al-Janbi - narrated to us from Juwaybir, from al-Dahhak regarding His saying: "Subhanahu" (Exalted is He), he says: "Wonder."
٧٧٢٢ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الأَشَجُّ ثنا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنْ جُوَيْبِرٍ عَنِ الضَّحَّاكِ: وَخَرَقُوا لَهُ بَنِينَ وَبَنَاتٍ قَالَ: وَصَفُوا لَهُ.

وَخَرَقُوا لَهُ بَنِينَ وَبَنَاتٍ قَالَ: كَذَبُوا لَهُ، أَمَّا الْيَهُودُ وَالنَّصَارَى فَقَالُوا نَحْنُ أَبْنَاءُ اللَّهِ وَأَحِبَّاؤُهُ، وَهُمْ كَذَّبُوا بِهِ، وَأَمَّا مُشْرِكُو الْعَرَبِ فَكَانُوا يَعْبُدُونَ اللاتَ وَالْعُزَّى فَيَقُولُونَ:
الْعُزَّى بَنَاتُ اللَّهِ، فَأَكْذَبَهُمُ اللَّهُ وَنَفَاهُمْ مِنْ فِرَائِهِمْ.
قَوْلُهُ: بَنِينَ وَبَنَاتٍ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ

٧٧٢٥ - أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَزِيدَ الْقَرَاطِيسِيُّ فِيمَا كَتَبَ إِلَيَّ ثنا أَصْبَغُ بْنُ الْفَرَجِ قَالَ:
سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ يَقُولُ فِي قَوْلِهِ: وَخَرَقُوا لَهُ بَنِينَ وَبَنَاتٍ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ، قَالَ: خَرَقُوا كَذَبُوا، لَمْ يَكُنْ لِلَّهِ بَنُونَ وَلا بَنَاتٌ. قَالَتِ النَّصَارَى: الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ اللَّهِ، وَقَالَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ: الْمَلائِكَةُ بَنَاتُ اللَّهِ، فَكُلٌّ خَرَقُوا الْكَذِبَ، وَخَرَقَ: اخْتَرَقَ.
قَوْلُهُ: سُبْحَانَهُ
٧٧٢٦ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الأَشَجُّ ثنا حَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ عَنْ حَجَّاجٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ: قَوْلَهُ: سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: تَنْزِيهُ اللَّهِ نَفْسَهُ عَنِ السُّوءِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ عُمَرُ لِعَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، وَأَصْحَابُهُ عِنْدَهُ: لَا إِلَهَ إِلا اللَّهُ- قَدْ عَرَفْنَاهُ، فَمَا سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ عَلِيّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: كَلِمَةٌ أَحَبَّهَا اللَّهُ لِنَفْسِهِ وَرَضِيَهَا، وَأَحَبَّ أَنْ تُقَالَ.
٧٧٢٧ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ثنا ابْنُ نُفَيْلٍ ثنا النَّضْرُ بْنُ مُوسَى قَالَ: سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ مَيْمُونَ بْنَ مِهْرَانَ عَنْ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ، فَقَالَ: اسْمٌ يُعَظَّمُ اللَّهُ بِهِ، وَيُحَاشَى بِهِ مِنَ السُّوءِ.
٧٧٢٨ - حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ثنا سَهْلُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ ثنا أَبُو مَالِكٍ- يَعْنِي عَمْرَو بْنَ هَاشِمٍ الْجَنْبِيَّ- عَنْ جُوَيْبِرٍ عَنِ الضَّحَّاكِ فِي قَوْلِهِ: سُبْحَانَهُ يقول: عجب.
