Musnad Ahmad 2988
hasanIt was narrated that ibn ‘Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said:
A Jewish man passed by the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as he was sitting and said: What will you say, O Abul Qasim, on the Day when Allah, may He be blessed and exalted, puts the heaven on this - and he gestured with his forefinger - and the earth on this, and the water on this, and the mountains on this, and all of creation on this - all whilst gesturing with his fingers. Then Allah, may He be blessed and exalted, revealed the words: "They made not a just estimate of Allah such as is due to Him...” [az-Zumar 39.67].
