قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ لِي رَجُلٌ أَيَّ شَيْ‏ءٍ قُلْتَ حِينَ دَخَلْتَ عَلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ بِالرَّبَذَةِ قَالَ قُلْتُ اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ تَكْفِي مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ وَ لَا يَكْفِي مِنْكَ شَيْ‏ءٌ فَاكْفِنِي بِمَا شِئْتَ وَ كَيْفَ شِئْتَ وَ مِنْ حَيْثُ شِئْتَ وَ أَنَّى شِئْتَ .


Translation

From him, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from one of our companions who said, ‘Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘A man said to me<sup>asws</sup>, ‘Which thing did you<sup>asws</sup> say when you<sup>asws</sup> went over to Abu Ja’far (Al-Mansour the Caliph) at Al-Rabza?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘I<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘O Allah<sup>azwj</sup>! You<sup>azwj</sup> Siffice from everything and nothing suffices from You<sup>azwj</sup>, therefore Suffice me<sup>asws</sup> with whatever You<sup>azwj</sup> so Desire to, and from wherever You<sup>azwj</sup> so Desire to, and whenever You<sup>azwj</sup> so Desire to’’.
