" كَانَ اللهُ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ شَيْءٌ غَيرُهُ، وَكَانَ عَرْشُهُ عَلَى المَاءِ، وَكَتَبَ في الذِّكْر: كُلَّ شَيءٍ هُوَ كَائِنٌ وَخَلَقَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْض".

الكبرى للنسائي:١١١٧٦ – أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْحَارِثِ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنِي جَامِعُ بْنُ شَدَّادٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ مُحْرِزٍ عَنِ ابْنِ حُصَيْنٍ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «كَانَ اللهُ وَلَا شَيْءَ غَيْرُهُ وَكَانَ عَرْشُهُ عَلَى الْمَاءِ فَكَتَبَ فِي الذِّكْرِ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ ثُمَّ خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمَوَاتٍ»
