الحاكم:٣٢٤٤حَدَّثَنَا الشَّيْخُ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ أَنْبَأَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رِيحٍ السَّمَّاكُ ثنا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَنْبَأَ سُفْيَانُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدٍ الْكَاتِبِ الْمُكْتِبِ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ

خَلَقَ اللَّهُ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْيَاءٍ بِيَدِهِ الْعَرْشَ وَجَنَّاتِ عَدْنٍ وَآدَمَ وَالْقَلَمَ وَاحْتَجَبَ مِنَ الْخَلْقِ بِأَرْبَعَةٍ بِنَارٍ وَظُلْمَةٍ وَنُورٍ وَظُلْمَةٍ
