حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ هِشَامَ بْنَ حَسَّانَ، يُحَدِّثُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ، قَالَ:، ، كُنْتُ عِنْدَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، فَسَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ عَنْ شَيْءٍ لَمْ أَدْرِ مَا هُوَ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، سَأَلَ عَنْهَا اثْنَانِ، وَهَذَا الثَّالِثُ، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " إِنَّ رِجَالًا سَتَرْتَفِعُ بِهِمُ الْمَسْأَلَةُ، حَتَّى يَقُولُوا: اللهُ خَلَقَ الْخَلْقَ، فَمَنْ خَلَقَهُ؟ " (١)، ،

English translation

Muhammad bin Sirin, may Allah have mercy on him, says that I was sitting with Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, when a man asked him something, but I do not know what he asked. Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, after hearing his question, said: "Allahu Akbar! Two people have already asked me about this before, now this is the third person. I heard the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, say: 'Some people will become accustomed to asking questions so much that they will even begin to ask: If Allah created all of creation, then who created Allah?'"
