Infinite knowledge of unseen?

A number of our people has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Mu’ammar ibn Khallad who has said that a man from Persia asked abu al-Hassan (as) the following. “Do you know al-Ghayb (the hidden facts)?” The Imam (as) said, “abu Ja‘far (as) has said, ‘It opens to us then we know it and it is withheld from us then we do not know.” The Imam (as) then said, “It is the secret of Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High, who has secretly given to Jibril and Jibril has secretly given to Muhammad (saw) and Muhammad (saw) has secretly given to whoever Allah wished.”

📚Al Kafi Shareef V1,P152


Ahmad ibn Muhammad has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Hassan from Ahmad ibn a1-Hassan ibn Ali from ‘Amr ibn Sa‘id from Musaddiq ibn Sadaqa from ‘Ammar al-Sabati who has said that he asked abu ‘Abdallah (as) the following. “Does the Imam have the knowledge of the hidden facts?” The Imam (as) said, “No, he does not have such knowledge but if he would like to know about a thing Allah grants him such knowledge.”

📚Al Kafi Shareef V1, P153





Asbat reported that he asked Imam As-Sadiq (as): “You are asked about something on which the knowledge of it is not with you.” He said: “Sometimes this happens.” I said: “How do you go about it?” He said: “The Holy Spirit enlightens us with it.”
