Allah will hold the heavens on a Finger, and the mountains on a Finger, and the trees on a Finger, and all the creation on a Finger, and then He will say, 'I am the King.' " On that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) smiled till his premolar teeth became visible, and then recited-- 'No just estimate have they made of Allah such as due to him....(39.67) `Abdullah added Allah's Apostle smiled (at the Jew's statement) expressing his wonder and belief in what was said.

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ، سَمِعَ يَحْيَى بْنَ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، حَدَّثَنِي مَنْصُورٌ ، وَسُلَيْمَانُ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ عَبِيدَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، "

أَنَّ يَهُودِيًّا جَاءَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا مُحَمَّدُ ، إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُمْسِكُ السَّمَوَاتِ عَلَى إِصْبَعٍ ، وَالْأَرَضِينَ عَلَى إِصْبَعٍ ، وَالْجِبَالَ عَلَى إِصْبَعٍ ، وَالشَّجَرَ عَلَى إِصْبَعٍ ، وَالْخَلَائِقَ عَلَى إِصْبَعٍ ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ : أَنَا الْمَلِكُ ، فَضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى بَدَتْ نَوَاجِذُهُ ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ : وَمَا قَدَرُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ قَدْرِهِ سورة الأنعام آية 91

" ، قَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ : وَزَادَ فِيهِ فُضَيْلُ بْنُ عِيَاضٍ ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، فَضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَعَجُّبًا وَتَصْدِيقًا لَهُ .
