حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو حَازِمٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مِقْسَمٍ أَنَّهُ نَظَرَ إِلَی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ کَيْفَ يَحْکِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ يَأْخُذُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ سَمَاوَاتِهِ وَأَرَضِيهِ بِيَدَيْهِ فَيَقُولُ أَنَا اللَّهُ وَيَقْبِضُ أَصَابِعَهُ وَيَبْسُطُهَا أَنَا الْمَلِکُ حَتَّی نَظَرْتُ إِلَی الْمِنْبَرِ يَتَحَرَّکُ مِنْ أَسْفَلِ شَيْئٍ مِنْهُ حَتَّی إِنِّي لَأَقُولُ أَسَاقِطٌ هُوَ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 7052
Abdullah b. Miqsam reported that he saw Abdullah b. Umar as he narrated Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, would take in His hand His Heavens and His Earth, and would say: I am Allah. And He would clench His fingers and then would open them (and say): I am your Lord. I saw the pulpit in commotion from underneath because of something (vib-ating) there. And (I felt this commotion so much) that I said (to myself): It may not fall with Allah's Massenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) upon it.
