The Things Allah Created with His Hand

[Abu Isra'il]

It was related from Abd-Allah bin Amrw that RasulAllah (saw) said: "Indeed Allah, Lofty and Exalted is He, created 3 things with His Hand: He created Adam (as) with His Hand, He wrote the Tawrah with His Hand, and He planted the Garden of Adn with His Hand." (Daraqutni, as-Sifaat, 45, # 26; Bayhaqi, al-Asmaa wa's-Sifaat, 403; Ibn Taymiyyah, Aqidatu'l-Wasitiyyah)

It was related from Ibn Umar (ra) that he said: "Allah created 4 things with His Hand: The Throne, the Pen, Adam (as), and the Garden of Adn. Then He said to the rest of creation: ‘Be’. Thus it was." (adh-Dhahabi, al-Uluw)

Ibn Umar (ra) said: “Allah created 4 things with His Hand: The Throne, the Garden of Adn, Adam (as), and the Pen; and He was veiled from the creation with 4: Fire, darkness, light, and darkness.” (Hakim, Mustadrak, # 3202; Bayhaqi, al-Asmaa wa's-Sifaat, # 677)
