حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْأَحْمَرِ النَّاقِدُ، قَالَ: نَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ، قَالَ: نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ دِينَارٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ:

كُنَّا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ أَقْبَحُ النَّاسِ وَجْهًا، وَأَقْبَحُ النَّاسِ ثِيَابًا، وَأَنْتَنُ النَّاسِ رِيحًا، جِلْفًا جَافِيًا، فَتَخَطَّى رِقَابَ النَّاسِ، فَجَلَسَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: مَنْ خَلَقَكَ ؟ قَالَ: اللهُ، قَالَ: فَمَنْ خَلَقَ السَّمَاءَ ؟ قَالَ: اللهُ، قَالَ: فَمَنْ خَلَقَ الْأَرْضَ ؟ قَالَ: اللهُ، قَالَ: فَمَنْ خَلَقَ اللهَ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: سُبْحَانَ اللهِ، مَرَّتَيْنِ، وَأَمْسَكَ بِجَبْهَتِهِ، فَقَامَ الرَّجُلُ فَذَهَبَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: عَلَيَّ بِالرَّجُلِ، فَطَلَبْنَاهُ، فَكَأَنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: هَذَا إِبْلِيسُ، جَاءَ يُشَكِّكُكُمْ فِي دِينِكُمْ

✧ We were with the Messenger of God ﷺ when a man came, the ugliest of people in face, the ugliest of people in clothing, and the foulest of people in smell—coarse and rough. He stepped over the people's necks and sat down in front of the Messenger of God ﷺ. He said: 'Who created you?' He replied: 'God.' He said: 'Who created the sky?' He replied: 'God.' He said: 'Who created the earth?' He replied: 'God.' He said: 'Who created God?' The Messenger of God ﷺ said: 'Glory be to God' twice, and he grabbed his forehead. The man got up and left. The Messenger of God ﷺ said: 'Bring me the man.' We looked for him, but it was as if he had never existed. The Messenger of God ﷺ said: 'This is Iblis. He came to make you doubt your religion.'
