حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّلْتِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو کُدَيْنَةَ عَنْ عَطَائِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنْ أَبِي الضُّحَی عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ مَرَّ يَهُودِيٌّ بِالنَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَا يَهُودِيُّ حَدِّثْنَا فَقَالَ کَيْفَ تَقُولُ يَا أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ إِذَا وَضَعَ اللَّهُ السَّمَوَاتِ عَلَی ذِهْ وَالْأَرْضَ عَلَی ذِهْ وَالْمَائَ عَلَی ذِهْ وَالْجِبَالَ عَلَی ذِهْ وَسَائِرَ الْخَلْقِ عَلَی ذِهْ وَأَشَارَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّلْتِ بِخِنْصَرِهِ أَوَّلًا ثُمَّ تَابَعَ حَتَّی بَلَغَ الْإِبْهَامَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ وَمَا قَدَرُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ قَدْرِهِ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَی هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ صَحِيحٌ لَا نَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ وَأَبُو کُدَيْنَةَ اسْمُهُ يَحْيَی بْنُ الْمُهَلَّبِ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ إِسْمَعِيلَ رَوَی هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ شُجَاعٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الصَّلْتِ

جامع ترمذی · Hadith 3240

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: A Jew passed by the Prophet (ﷺ), so the Prophet (ﷺ) said: 'O you Jew! Narrate something to us.' So he said: 'What shall you say O Abul-Qasim, when Allah places the heavens upon this, the earths upon this, the water upon this, the mountains upon this, and the rest of creation upon this?' - Muhammad bin As-Salt, Abu Ja'far (one of the narrators) indicated first with his little finger, then followed one by one until he reached his index finger - So Allah, the Mighty and Sublime revealed: They made not a just estimate of Allah such as is due to Him (39:67).
