[Machine] A group entered upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and they began to ask him, saying, "Give us until it becomes burdensome for you." And then another group came to him and said, "We have come to greet the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and to seek knowledge in religion and to ask him about the beginning of this matter." He ﷺ said, "Allah existed and nothing else existed, and the Throne was above the water. He wrote in the Remembrance (the Preserved Tablet) everything, and then He created seven heavens." He ﷺ said, "Then a person came to him and said, 'Indeed, your camel has gone away.' So he said, 'I wish I had left it.'"  

دَخَلَ قَوْمٌ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَجَعَلُوا يَسْأَلُونَهُ يَقُولُونَ أَعْطِنَا حَتَّى سَاءَهُ ذَلِكَ وَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ آخَرُونَ فَقَالُوا جِئْنَا نُسَلِّمُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَنَتَفَقَّهُ فِي الدِّينِ وَنَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ بَدْءِ هَذَا الْأَمْرِ فَقَالَ «كَانَ اللَّهُ وَلَا شَيْءَ غَيْرُهُ وَكَانَ الْعَرْشُ عَلَى الْمَاءِ وَكَتَبَ فِي الذِّكْرِ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ ثُمَّ خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ» قَالَ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ آتٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّ نَاقَتَكَ قَدْ ذَهَبَتْ قَالَ فَوَدِدْتُ أَنِّي كُنْتُ تَرَكْتُهَا
