Hadith 1:

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ عَبْدِي يَرْفَعُهُ إِلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: أَبَى اللَّهُ أَنْ يُجْرِيَ الْأَشْيَاءَ إِلَّا بِالْأَسْبَابِ فَجَعَلَ لِكُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ سَبَباً وَ جَعَلَ لِكُلِّ سَبَبٍ شَرْحاً وَ جَعَلَ لِكُلِّ شَرْحٍ مِفْتَاحاً وَ جَعَلَ لِكُلِ‏ مِفْتَاحٍ‏ عِلْماً وَ جَعَلَ لِكُلِّ عِلْمٍ بَاباً نَاطِقاً مَنْ عَرَفَهُ عَرَفَ اللَّهَ وَ مَنْ أَنْكَرَهُ أَنْكَرَ اللَّهَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ نَحْن‏

Narrated that AbU Abdillah Imam Sadiq (ع) said,

"Allah (عز وجل) refuses to implement (carry out) anything without a reason and so He has made a reason for everything and has made explanation for every reason and has made key for every explanation, and has made knowledge for every key and for every knowledge he has made speaking door, The one who recognizes Him (the speaking door) recognizes Allah and the one who rejects Him rejects Allah. That (speaking door) is Prophet of Allah (ص) and Us."

عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنِ الْعَمْرَكِيِّ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ جَمِيعاً عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) إِنَّ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ خَلَقَنَا فَأَحْسَنَ خَلْقَنَا وَصَوَّرَنَا فَأَحْسَنَ صُوَرَنَا وَجَعَلَنَا خُزَّانَهُ فِي سَمَائِهِ وَأَرْضِهِ وَلَنَا نَطَقَتِ الشَّجَرَةُ وَبِعِبَادَتِنَا عُبِدَ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَلَوْلانَا مَا عُبِدَ الله
