“Allaah created three things with His Hand:   

1. He created Adam with His Hand
 
2. He wrote the Tawraah with His Hand and
 
3. He planted Firdaus with His Hand.”
 

 

[Collected by ad Daylami, It was also collected by ad Darqutni in ‘As Sifaat’ P. 26 #28 and Abu Ash Shaikh in ‘Al ‘Udhmah’: 5/1555]

 

“Indeed Allah - the Mighty and Majestic - created three things with His Hand; He created Adam with His Hand, He wrote the Torah with His Hand and He planted Firdaws with His Hand.” [Collected by ad Darqutni in ‘As Sifaat’ P.45 and al Bayhaqi in ‘Al Asma was Sifat’: P. 403 on the authority of al Harith ibn Nawfal.]

“Allaah created four things with His Hand; 

1. The Throne
 
2. The Pen
 
3. Aadam and
 
4. The paradise of ‘Adn.

He then said to the rest of the creation ‘Kun’ [Be] and it was.”

  Adh Dhahabi stated in ‘Al ‘Uluw’: ‘It’s chain is good.’ Al Albaani stated in ‘Mukhtasar al ‘Uluw’ P.105: ‘The chain is authentic according to the conditions of Muslim.’ On the authority of ‘Abdullaah ibn al Haarith who said; the Messenger of Allaah - صلى الله عليه و سلم - said:

“Allah created three things with His Hand; He created Adam with His Hand, He wrote the Torah with His Hand and He planted Firdaws with His Hand. He then said; “By my Glory, neither a drunkard nor a ‘Dayyooth’ will live in it”The companions asked: ‘O Messenger of Allah, we know the drunkard, but who is the Dayyooth?’

He responded: “One who consents to evil in his family.”^[1]

On the authority of ibn ‘Umar – may Allah be pleased with him:

“Allah created four things with his hands: The throne, the paradise of ‘Adn, Adam and the PenHe veiled the creation from Himself with four:

Fire, then darkness, then light, then darkness.”

  Al Haakim stated: ‘The chain is authentic according to the conditions of both Bukhari and Muslim but they did not collect them [in their Saheehs].’ [Mukhtasar al ‘Uluw by al Albaani] Ibnul Qayyim stated: It has been authentically reported by both al Bukhari and Muslim in their Saheehs, that the Prophet - صلى الله عليه و سلم - said in the Hadeeth of the intercession: it will be said to Musa: ‘…You are Musa that Allah has specified with His [direct] Speech [to you] and wrote the Tablets for you with His Hand…’ [Bayaan Talbees al Jahmiyyah 1/153] Ibn ‘Uthaymeen said: The people of knowledge stated that Allah did not create anything with His Hand except Adam, the Paradise of ‘Adn – for indeed he created it with His Hand, and He wrote the Torah with His Hand. These are three things that were by the Hand of Allaah – the Mighty and Majestic, as for [those of mankind] other than Adam , they were created by the word ‘Kun’ (be). [Tafseer Surat al Kahf: P.89]
