It is narrated from a number of our people from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid from his father and Muhammad ibn Yahya from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn 'Isa from al-Husayn ibn Sa'id and Muhammad
ibn Khalid altogether from Fudala ibn Ayyub from Muhammad ibn 'Ammara from Hariz ibn 'Abdallah and 'Abdallah ibn Maskan altogether from abu 'Abdallah (a.s.) who said the following.
"There is nothing in the heavens and on earth without these seven charateristics: the wish, the will, the measure, the decree, the permission, the record and duration.Whoever thinks that he
can do without any one of these he has become a unbeliever."
From Ali ibn Ibrahim from his father from Muhammad ibn Hafs from Muhammad ibn 'Ammara from Hariz ibn 'Abdallah and ibn Maskan a similar Hadith is narrated.

He has narrated it from his father from Muhammad ibn Khalid from Zakariya ibn 'Imran from abu al-Hassan Musa ibn Ja'far (a.s.) who has said the following.
There is nothing in heavens or on earth without seven: the decree, the measure, the will, the wish, the record (book) the duration and the permission. Whoever, would think something else he
certainly has spoken a lie against Allah or has rejected Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High.
