" قَالَ: قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجل: إِن أمتك لَا يزالون يَقُولُونَ: مَا كَذَا؟ مَا كَذَا؟ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا: هَذَا اللَّهُ خَلَقَ الْخَلْقَ فَمَنْ خَلَقَ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجل؟ "
Anas reported God’s messenger as saying, “Men will continue to question one another till they propound this: ‘God created everything, but who created God?’ ” Bukhari transmitted it. Muslim’s version is: He declared that God said, “Your people will continue to ask, ‘What is this?’ and ‘what is that?’ till they propound this: God created all things, but who created God?”
