حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ حَسَنٍ الْأَشْقَرُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُدَيْنَةَ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنْ أَبِي الضُّحَى عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ مَرَّ يَهُودِيٌّ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ فَقَالَ كَيْفَ تَقُولُ يَا أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ يَوْمَ يَجْعَلُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى السَّمَاءَ عَلَى ذِهْ وَأَشَارَ بِالسَّبَّابَةِ وَالْأَرْضَ عَلَى ذِهْ وَالْمَاءَ عَلَى ذِهْ وَالْجِبَالَ عَلَى ذِهْ وَسَائِرَ الْخَلَائِقِ عَلَى ذِهْ كُلُّ ذَلِكَ يُشِيرُ بِإِصْبَعِهِ قَالَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى وَمَا قَدَرُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ قَدْرِهِ الْآيَةَ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 2989
It was narrated that Ibn Abbas (RA) said: A jewish man passed by the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) as he was sitting and said: What will you say, O Abul- Qasim, on the Day when Allah, may He be blessed and exalted, puts the heaven on this - and he gestured with his forefinger - and the earth on this, and the water on this, and the mountains on this, and all of creation on this - ail whilst gesturing with his fingers. Then Allah, may He be blessed and exalted, revealed the words: "They made not a just estimate of Allah such as is due to Him... 77 [az-Zumar 39:67].
