أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ
جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُمْسِكُ السَّمَاوَاتِ عَلَى إِصْبَعٍ وَالْمَاءَ وَالثَّرَى عَلَى إِصْبَعٍ وَالْخَلَائِقَ كُلَّهَا عَلَى إِصْبَعٍ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ أَنَا الْمَلِكُ «فَضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ حَتَّى بَدَتْ نَوَاجِذُهُ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {وَمَا قَدَرُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ قَدْرِهِ وَالْأَرْضُ جَمِيعًا قَبْضَتُهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَالسَّمَوَاتُ مَطْوِيَّاتٌ بِيَمِينِهِ سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ}»

✧ A man from the People of the Book came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "Indeed, Allah holds the heavens on a finger, the water and the earth on a finger, and all the creatures on a finger, then says, 'I am the King.'" The Messenger of Allah laughed until his molar teeth appeared, then recited this verse: "They have not appraised Allah with true appraisal, while the earth entirely will be His handful on the Day of Resurrection, and the heavens will be folded in His right hand. Exalted is He and high above what they associate with Him."

- 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).
