أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الْحَافِظُ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى ثنا مُسَدَّدٌ ثنا الْمُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنْ مِقْسَمٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ
أَوَّلُ مَا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ الْقَلَمَ خَلَقَهُ مِنْ هَجَا قَبْلَ الْأَلْفِ وَاللَّامِ فَتَصَوَّرَ قَلَمًا مِنْ نُورٍ فَقِيلَ لَهُ اجْرِ فِي اللَّوْحِ الْمَحْفُوظِ قَالَ يَا رَبِّ بِمَاذَا؟ قَالَ بِمَا يَكُونُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ فَلَمَّا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ الْخَلْقَ وَكَّلَ بِالْخَلْقِ حَفَظَةً يَحْفَظُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ أَعْمَالَهُمْ فَلَمَّا قَامَتِ الْقِيَامَةُ عُرِضَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ أَعْمَالُهُمْ وَقِيلَ {هَذَا كِتَابُنَا يَنْطِقُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْحَقِّ إِنَّا كُنَّا نَسْتَنْسِخُ مَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ} [الجاثية 29] عَرَضَ بِالْكِتَابَيْنِ فَكَانَا سَوَاءً قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ أَلَسْتُمْ عَرَبًا؟ هَلْ تَكُونُ النُّسْخَةُ إِلَّا مِنْ كِتَابٍ؟

✧ “The first thing Allah created was the Pen. He created it from hajā before the alif and the lām, and it took the form of a pen of light. It was said to it: ‘Flow upon the Preserved Tablet.’ It said: ‘O Lord, with what?’ He said: ‘With all that will be until the Day of Resurrection.’ When Allah created the creation, He appointed guardians over them to record their deeds. When the Resurrection occurs, their deeds will be shown to them and it will be said: ‘This is Our record speaking about you in truth; indeed, We used to have transcribed whatever you used to do’ [Q 45:29]. He compared the two records, and they were identical. Ibn ʿAbbās said: ‘Are you not Arabs? Is a copy taken except from a record?’”
