إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى خَلَقَ دِيكاً أَبْيَضَ عُنُقُهُ تَحْتَ الْعَرْشِ وَ رِجْلَاهُ فِي تُخُومِ الْأَرْضِ السَّابِعَةِ لَهُ جَنَاحٌ فِي الْمَشْرِقِ وَ جَنَاحٌ فِي الْمَغْرِبِ لَا تَصِيحُ الدُّيُوكُ حَتَّى يَصِيحَ فَإِذَا صَاحَ خَفَقَ بِجَنَاحَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ الْعَظِيمِ الَّذِي لَيْسَ كَمِثْلِهِ شَيْءٌ قَالَ فَيُجِيبُهُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى فَيَقُولُ لَا يَحْلِفُ بِي كَاذِباً مَنْ يَعْرِفُ مَا تَقُولُ .
Translation
Ali, from his father, and Muhammad Bin Ismail from Al Fazl Bin Shazaan, both together from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Ibrahim Bin Abdul Hameed, from a sheykh from our companions with a teknonym of Abu Al Hassan, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Blessed and High Created a white rooster, its neck is beneath the Throne, and its feet as in the edge of the seventh firmament. For it is a wing in the east and a wing in the west. The roosters (of the world) do not shriek until it shrieks. So whenever it shrieks, it flaps with its wings, then says: ‘Glory be to Allah<sup>azwj</sup>! Glory be to Allah<sup>saww</sup> the Magnificent, Who does not resemble anything’. So Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Blessed and High Answers it, so He<sup>azwj</sup> is Saying: “He would not swear by Me<sup>azwj</sup> falsely, the one who recognises what you are saying”.
