حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنِي مَنْصُورٌ وَسُلَيْمَانُ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عَبِيدَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ
أَنَّ يَهُودِيًّا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ، إِنَّ اللهَ يُمْسِكُ السَّمَاوَاتِ عَلَى إِصْبَعٍ، وَالْأَرَضِينَ عَلَى إِصْبَعٍ، وَالْجِبَالَ عَلَى إِصْبَعٍ، وَالْخَلَائِقَ عَلَى إِصْبَعٍ، وَالشَّجَرَ عَلَى إِصْبَعٍ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: أَنَا الْمَلِكُ، فَضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى بَدَتْ نَوَاجِذُهُ، وَقَالَ: وَمَا قَدَرُوا اللهَ حَقَّ قَدْرِهِ

"A Jew came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: 'O Muhammad! Allah will seize the heavens upon a finger, the mountains upon a finger, the earths upon a finger, and the rest of creation upon a finger. Then He says: 'I am the King.'" He said: 'So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ laughed until his molars were visible. He said: "They made not a just estimate of Allah such as is due to Him (39:67)." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3238)

- Qurṭubī
هذه الرواية هي الرواية الصحيحة المحققة فأما رواية من زاد في هذا اللفظ تصديقا له فليست بشيء لأنها من قول الراوي وهي باطلة
machine translationThis narration is the sound, verified one (al-riwāyah al-ṣaḥīḥah al-muḥaqqaqah). As for the narration of the one who added to this wording "as a confirmation of it," it is worthless, because it is from the words of the narrator, and it is false (bāṭilah).
