The Prophet ﷺ said, "Allah said: 'The son of Adam tells a lie against Me,, though he hasn't the right to do so. He abuses me though he hasn't the right to do so. As for his telling a lie against Me, it is his saying that I will not recreate him as I created him for the first time. In fact, the first creation was not easier for Me than new creation. As for his abusing Me, it is his saying that Allah has begotten children, while I am the One, the Self-Sufficient Master Whom all creatures need, I beget not, nor was I begotten, and there is none like unto Me." (Using translation from Bukhārī 4974)

As for his insulting Me, it is his saying: 'Allah has offspring.' But his denial of Me is his saying: 'Allah will not resurrect me as He created me.'"

[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he said: "Indeed, Allah said: 'My servant has falsely accused Me, and he had no right to accuse Me, and he insulted Me, and he had no right to insult Me. As for his false accusation of Me, he says: 'He will not cause me to be resurrected as He began me,' and the creation is not more difficult for Me than to recreate him as he was from the beginning, so he has indeed accused Me if he says that. And as for his insult towards Me, he says: 'Allah has taken a son,' while I am Allah, One, As-Samad (the Everlasting Refuge), I did not beget."
