حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْمُؤَدِّبُ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ يَأْتِي الشَّيْطَانُ أَحَدَکُمْ فَيَقُولُ مَنْ خَلَقَ السَّمَائَ مَنْ خَلَقَ الْأَرْضَ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ ذَکَرَ بِمِثْلِهِ وَزَادَ وَرُسُلِهِ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 344
It is narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: Men will continue to question one another till this is propounded: Allah created all things but who created Allah? He who found himself confronted with such a situation should say: I affirm my faith in Allah.
