Abstract
The phrase "عَبْدِی أَطِعْنِی أَجْعَلْکَ مِثْلِی" is often utilized in ethical and mystical discussions, suggesting that through obedience to God, an individual can attain a divine-like power of creation, referred to as "کُن فیکون". This study employs an analytical approach and content analysis tables to evaluate the textual and jurisprudential authenticity of this statement. The findings indicate that there is no significant evidence linking the expression "عَبْدِی أَطِعْنِی أَجْعَلْکَ مِثْلِی" to any of the infallible figures (ع). Phrases such as "فی بعض الصحف" and "فِی بَعْضِ الْکُتُبِ", along with references to figures like Dhul-Nun, suggest that this phrase may have originated from non-authentic Islamic sources with Sufi and exaggerated tendencies. Since the eighth century, the figure most associated with this phrase has been Hafiz Rajab Bursi, who has been frequently cited in later periods. Additionally, jurisprudential considerations reveal inconsistencies within the text itself, contradictions with the verse "لَیْسَ کَمِثْلِهِ شَیْءٌ", and conflicts with the monotheistic literature and traditions of the Imams (ع), particularly regarding the negation of any similarity or equivalence between the Creator and His creation.
