All things will perish




My father - Allah have mercy on him - narrated to us, he said: Sa`d b. `Abdullah narrated to us, he said: Ahmad b. Muhammad b. `Isa narrated to us, from Muhammad b. Isma`il b. Bazee', from Mansoor b. Younus, from a friend of Abi Hamzah, from Abi Hamzah who said:

I spoke to Abi Ja`far (al-Baqir) [a] regarding the saying of Allah, the High,: "Everything will perish save His face" [28:88].

He [a] said:All things will perish, and what will remain is His face. Indeed Allah, the Mighty and Exalted, is far greater from being attributed with (having) a face, but the meaning thereof is that every thing will persish except for His religion and the countenance that has been provided from Him.
