How is one to respond to the one who asks about the creation of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He)?

Question : May Allah reward you. How is one to respond to the one who asks about the creation of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He)?

Answer : That is, he says, "Who created Allah?" If someone asks, for example, "Who created the heavens?" we say, "Allah." "Who created man?" we say, "Allah." And so on for all created things; we say Allah created them. Then they ask, "Who created Allah?" Let us suppose we said, for example, "So-and-so." Does that leave the question of who created So-and-so? Therefore, the Shaykh al-Islam and other scholars of knowledge said that an infinite regress in the agents of effect is prohibited. An infinite regress in the agents of effect is prohibited. An infinite regress in created things is permissible, but in the creators it is absolutely not permissible, because if you permit an infinite regress in the creators, it means that we would never reach a final answer. If we permit an infinite regress in the agents of effect, meaning in the creators, then we would not reach a limit at all. So, when we know that no one claims to have created the heavens and the earth, nor created man, and that the Creator is Allah, we stop there. This is from the rational perspective. From the perspective of the Shari'ah, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded that when a person reaches this point, he should seek refuge in Allah and stop, because this questioning comes from Shaytan. So he seeks refuge in Allah from Shaytan and stops, cutting off the questioning. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When this questioning comes to a person, let him say, "I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan," and let him stop; he cuts off this questioning. And when he does that, he finds relief. And this, truly, my brothers, is a cure and healing, with brevity. Did you understand?
That is, the people of intellect may answer with what I mentioned first, but something may remain in the person's mind: why do we prohibit an infinite regress in the agents of effect, or in the creators? But if we follow what the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) indicated, and we say with a sincere heart when this doubt comes to us, "I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan," and we stop, cutting off the questioning, then tranquility is achieved.
And the cure here is from whom? The cure is from a knowledgeable doctor who first diagnosed the disease and then prescribed the medicine. So, if Shaytan brings this thing to your heart, say, "I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan," and stop. But if you are arguing with a person who does not believe in this hadith, and he brings up this thing, meaning he brings up the evidence, or you refute him with the rational evidence we mentioned earlier, and say, "This is the consensus of the people of intellect, as known by one who has read books on..."
