حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل ، أخبرنا حَمَّادٌ . ح وأخبرنا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، أخبرنا شُعْبَةُ الْمَعْنَى ، عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ عَطَاءٍ ، عَنْ وَكِيعٍ ، قَالَ مُوسَى : ابْنِ عُدُسٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي رَزِينٍ ، قَالَ مُوسَى : الْعُقَيْلِيِّ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : " يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَكُلُّنَا يَرَى رَبَّهُ ؟ قَالَ ابْنُ مُعَاذٍ : مُخْلِيًا بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ، وَمَا آيَةُ ذَلِكَ فِي خَلْقِهِ ؟ قَالَ : يَا أَبَا رَزِينٍ ، أَلَيْسَ كُلُّكُمْ يَرَى الْقَمَرَ ؟ , قَالَ ابْنُ مُعَاذٍ : لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ مُخْلِيًا بِهِ ، ثُمَّ اتَّفَقَا ، قُلْتُ : بَلَى ، قَالَ : فَاللَّهُ أَعْظَمُ ؟ , قَالَ ابْنُ مُعَاذٍ : قَالَ : فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ خَلْقٌ مِنْ خَلْقِ اللَّهِ ، فَاللَّهُ أَجَلُّ وَأَعْظَمُ " .
Narrated Abu Razin al-Uqayli: I asked: Messenger of Allah! will each one of us see his Lord? Ibn Muadh's version has: "being alone with Him, on the Day of Resurrection? And what sign is there is His creation?" He replied: Abu Razin! does each one of you not see the moon? Ibn Muadh's version has: "on the night when it is full, being alone with it?" Then the agreed version goes: I said: Yes. He said: Allah is more great. Ibn Muadh's version has: It is only part of Allah's creation, but Allah is more glorious and greater.
