The questioner:
What is the ruling on this statement: “I do not know where Allah created you? Where did Allah create you?”
The Shaykh:
How do you not know where Allah created him? Allah created him in his mother’s womb. Allah created him in his mother’s womb[Ali 'Imran 3:6]. If he denies this verse and says that Allah does not form in the wombs, that is kufr (disbelief). No, everyone knows that Allah created him in his mother’s womb. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
People say this word out of anger. Out of anger, not out of belief. They say it out of anger, and it is certainly wrong. It is a wrong word. Yes. And the explicit verse is also the saying of Allah the Exalted:[Az-Zumar 39:6] clearly. Allah creates the fetuses in the wombs of their mothers. And [An-Najm 53:32]. But some people say this out of anger, saying, “You do not know,” and that Allah created you, saying so out of anger. Yes.
