بَابٌ فِيمَا جَاءَ فِي ذَمِّ كَثْرَةِ السُّؤَالِ فِي الْعِلْمِ لِغَيْرِ حَاجَةٍChapter on what has come regarding the condemnation of excessive questioning in knowledge without need
Hadith 268

عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ قَالَ: كُنْتُ عِنْدَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ فَسَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ لَمْ أَدْرِ مَا هُوَ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ! سَأَلَ عَنْهَا اثْنَانِ وَهَذَا الثَّالِثُ، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ((إِنَّ رِجَالًا سَتَرْتَفِعُ بِهِمِ الْمَسْأَلَةُ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا: خَلَقَ الْخَلْقَ فَمَنْ خَلَقَهُ))
Muhammad bin Sirin, may Allah have mercy on him, says: I was with Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, when a man asked him a question. I do not know what that question was. In response, Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, said: «اللّٰہُ أَکْبَرُ» Two people have already asked about this, and this is the third. I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: "Indeed, people will continue to ask questions, until they even ask: 'Allah Almighty created the creation, but who created Him?'"
