عَرَضْتُ عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) كِتَاباً فِيهِ قُرْآنٌ مُخَتَّمٌ مُعَشَّرٌ بِالذَّهَبِ وَ كُتِبَ فِي آخِرِهِ سُورَةٌ بِالذَّهَبِ فَأَرَيْتُهُ إِيَّاهُ فَلَمْ يَعِبْ فِيهِ شَيْئاً إِلَّا كِتَابَةَ الْقُرْآنِ بِالذَّهَبِ وَ قَالَ لَا يُعْجِبُنِي أَنْ يُكْتَبَ الْقُرْآنُ إِلَّا بِالسَّوَادِ كَمَا كُتِبَ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Safwan, from Ibn Muskan, from Muhammad Bin Al Warraq who said, ‘There was displayed to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> a Book in wherein was Quran (Verses) sealed by decorations with the gold, and at the end of it was a Chapter written in gold. So he<sup>asws</sup> saw it but did not fault anything in it except for the writing of the Quran with gold, and said: ‘I<sup>asws</sup> do not like it if the Quran is written except with the black (ink) just as it was written the first time’.
