Chapter: ….

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ) as saying: A bulky person would be brought on the Day of Judgment and he would not carry the weight to the eye of Allah equal even to that of a gnat. Nor shall We set up a balance for them on the Day of Resurrection" (xviii. 105).

'Abdullah bin Mas'ud reported that a Jew scholar came to Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) (may peace he upon him) and said. Muhammad, or Abu al-Qasim, verify, Allah, the Exalted and Glorious. Would carry the Heavens on the Day of Judgment upon one finger and earths upon one finger and the mountains and trees upor one finger and the ocean and moist earth upon one finger-in fact the whole of the creation upon one finger, and then He would stir them and say: I am your Lord, I am your Lord. Thereupon Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) smiled testifying what that scholar had said. He then recited this verse:" And they honour not Allah with the honour due to Him; and the whole earth will be in His grip on the Day of Resurrection and the heavens will be rolled up up in His right hand. Glory be to Him and highly Exalted is He above what they associate (with Him)" (xxxix. 67).

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Mansur with the same chain of transmitters (and the words are): A Jew scholar came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) . The rest of the hadith is the same, but there is no mention of "then He would stir them." But there is this addition: "I saw Allah's Messengcr (ﷺ) smiling so much that his front teeth appeared and testifying him (the Jew scholar); then Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) recited the verse: "And they honour not Allah with the honour due to Him" (xxxix. 67).

'Abdullah reported that a person from the People of the Book came to Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) (may peace he upon him) and said: Abu al-Qasim, verify, Allah would carry the Heavens upon one finger and the earths upon one finger and the trees and moist earth upon one finger and in fact the whole of the creation upon one finger and then say: I am your Lord. I am your Lord. And he (the narrator) further said: I saw Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) seeming so happy that his front teeth became visible and then he recited the Verse: "And they honour not Allah with the honour due to Him" (xxxix. 67).

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of A'mash with the same chain of transmitters but with a slight variation of wording.

Abu Hurairah (RA) reported Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) as saying: Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, will take in His grip the earth on the Day of Judgment and He would roll up the sky in His right hand and would say: I am the Lord; where are the sovereigns of the world?

'Abdullah bin 'Umar reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying: Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, would fold the Heavens on the Day of Judgment and then He would place them on His right hand and say: I am the Lord; where are the haughty and where are the proud (today)? He would fold the' earth (placing it) on the left hand and say: I am the Lord; where are the haughty and where are the proud (today)?

'Abdullah bin Miqsam reported that he saw 'Abdullah bin 'Umar (RA) as he narrated Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, would take in His hand His Heavens and His Earth, and would say: I am Allah. And He would clench His fingers and then would open them (and say): I am your Lord. I saw the pulpit in commotion from underneath because of something (vibrating) there. And (I felt this commotion so much) that I said (to myself): It may not fall with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) upon it.

'Abdullah bin Miqsam reported that 'Abdullah bin 'Umar reported: I saw Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) upon the pulpit and he was saying that the Mighty Lord, the Exalted and Glorious would take hold of the Heavens and earth in His hand. The rest of the hadith is the same.
