حَدَّثَنَا
مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
حَمَّادٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا
حُمَيْدٌ ، قَالَ : " قَدِمَ عَلَيْنَا الْحَسَنُ مَكَّةَ ، فَكَلَّمَنِي فُقَهَاءُ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ أَنْ أُكَلِّمَهُ فِي أَنْ يَجْلِسَ لَهُمْ يَوْمًا يَعِظُهُمْ فِيهِ ، فَقَالَ : نَعَمْ ، فَاجْتَمَعُوا فَخَطَبَهُمْ فَمَا رَأَيْتُ أَخْطَبَ مِنْهُ ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ : يَا
أَبَا سَعِيدٍ مَنْ خَلَقَ الشَّيْطَانَ ؟ فَقَالَ : سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ هَلْ مِنْ خَالِقٍ غَيْرُ اللَّهِ ! خَلَقَ اللَّهُ الشَّيْطَانَ وَخَلَقَ الْخَيْرَ وَخَلَقَ الشَّرَّ ، قَالَ الرَّجُلُ : قَاتَلَهُمُ اللَّهُ كَيْفَ يَكْذِبُونَ عَلَى هَذَا الشَّيْخِ " .
Humaid said: Al-Hasan came to us. The jurists of Makkah told me that I should speak to him that some day he should hold a meeting for them and preach to them. He said: Yes. So they gathered and he addressed them. I did not see anyone on orator greater than him. A man said: Abu Saeed, who created Satan? He replied: Glory be to Allah! Is there any creator other than Allah? Allah created Satan, and he created good and created evil. The man said: May Allah ruin them! How do they lie to this old man.
