ذَكَرْتُ لَهُ الْمَجُوسَ وَ أَنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ نِكَاحٌ كَنِكَاحِ وُلْدِ آدَمَ وَ إِنَّهُمْ يُحَاجُّونَّا بِذَلِكَ فَقَالَ أَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَلَا يُحَاجُّونَكُمْ بِهِ لَمَّا أَدْرَكَ هِبَةُ اللَّهِ قَالَ آدَمُ يَا رَبِّ زَوِّجْ هِبَةَ اللَّهِ فَأَهْبَطَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَهُ حَوْرَاءَ فَوَلَدَتْ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةَ غِلْمَةٍ ثُمَّ رَفَعَهَا اللَّهُ فَلَمَّا أَدْرَكَ وُلْدُ هِبَةِ اللَّهِ قَالَ يَا رَبِّ زَوِّجْ وُلْدَ هِبَةِ اللَّهِ فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يَخْطُبَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَ كَانَ مُسْلِماً أَرْبَعَ بَنَاتٍ لَهُ عَلَى وُلْدِ هِبَةِ اللَّهِ فَزَوَّجَهُنَّ فَمَا كَانَ مِنْ جَمَالٍ وَ حِلْمٍ فَمِنْ قِبَلِ الْحَوْرَاءِ وَ النُّبُوَّةِ وَ مَا كَانَ مِنْ سَفَهٍ أَوْ حِدَّةٍ فَمِنَ الْجِنِّ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Khalid Bin Ismail, from a man from our companions from the people of the mountain, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup>. said. ‘I mentioned the Magians to him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘And they are saying that a marriage (of theirs) is like a marriage of the children of Adam<sup>as</sup>, and they are arguing against us with that’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘As for you (Shias) all, so they should not be arguing against you with it. When Hibbatullah became an adult, Adam<sup>as</sup> said: ‘O Lord<sup>azwj</sup>! Get Hibbatullah to be married’. So Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic Sent down a Hourie for him, and she gave birth for him to four boys. Then Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Raised her (back). So when the children of Hibbatullah became adults, he<sup>as</sup> said, ‘O Lord<sup>azwj</sup>! Get the children of Hibbatullah to be married’. So Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic Revealed unto him<sup>as</sup> that he<sup>as</sup> should make a proposal to a man from the Jinn, and he was a Muslim having four daughters for him, for the sons of Hibbatullah. So he married them. Thus whatever was from the beauty and the forbearance, so it is from the Hourie, along with the Prophet-hood; and whatever was from the foolishness or violent anger, so it is from the Jinn’.
