Hadith #435
Arabic Text
وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ كَذَّبَنِي عَبْدِي وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ ذَلِكَ وَشَتَمَنِي وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ ذَلِكَ تَكْذِيبُهُ إِيَّايَ أَنْ يَقُولَ فَلَنْ يُعِيدَنَا كَمَا بَدَأَنَا وَأَمَّا شَتْمُهُ إِيَّايَ يَقُولُ اتَّخَذَ اللَّهُ وَلَدًا وَأَنَا الصَّمَدُ الَّذِي لَمْ أَلِدْ وَلَمْ أُولَدْ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لِي كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ
English Translation
the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Allah, Mighty and Majestic, said: My servant has disbelieved in Me, and he had no right to do so. And My servant has insulted Me, and he had no right to do so. As for his disbelieving in Me, it is his saying: He will not resurrect me as He created me the first time — and the initial creation is no easier for Me than bringing him back. As for his insulting Me, it is his saying: Allah has taken a son — and I am the One, the Self-Sufficient, Who begets not nor was begotten, and there is none comparable to Me.'
