حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَخْبَرَنَا الْعَوَّامُ بْنُ حَوْشَبٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " لَمَّا خَلَقَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ الْأَرْضَ،، ، جَعَلَتْ تَمِيدُ، فَخَلَقَ الْجِبَالَ، فَأَلْقَاهَا عَلَيْهَا فَاسْتَقَرَّتْ، فَتَعَجَّبَتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ مِنْ خَلْقِ الْجِبَالِ، فَقَالَتْ: يَا رَبِّ، هَلْ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ شَيْءٌ أَشَدُّ مِنَ الْجِبَالِ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، الْحَدِيدُ. قَالَتْ: يَا رَبِّ، هَلْ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ شَيْءٌ أَشَدُّ مِنَ الْحَدِيدِ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، النَّارُ قَالَتْ: يَا رَبِّ، هَلْ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ شَيْءٌ أَشَدُّ مِنَ النَّارِ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، الْمَاءُ. قَالَتْ: يَا رَبِّ، فَهَلْ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ شَيْءٌ أَشَدُّ مِنَ الْمَاءِ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، الرِّيحُ. قَالَتْ: يَا رَبِّ، فَهَلْ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ شَيْءٌ أَشَدُّ مِنَ الرِّيحِ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، ابْنُ آدَمَ يَتَصَدَّقُ بِيَمِينِهِ يُخْفِيهَا مِنْ شِمَالِهِ " (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: When Allah created the earth, it began to sway. Allah created the mountains and placed them upon it, so it became stable in its place. The angels were astonished at the creation of the mountains and said, "O Lord! Have You created anything harder than the mountains?" Allah said, "Yes! Iron." They asked, "O Lord! Have You created anything harder than iron?" He said, "Yes! Fire." The angels asked, "Have You created anything harder than fire?" He said, "Yes! Wind." The angels asked, "O Lord! Have You created anything harder than wind?" He said, "Yes! The son of Adam, who spends with his right hand so that his left hand does not even know."
