The questioner : In the name of Allah, and all praise is due to Allah, and may prayers and peace be upon the noblest of the messengers, our master Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions.
Your Eminence, the question is: Some of the common people who are ignorant of the matter of tawhid (the oneness of Allah) are whispered to by Satan to ask, namely: Who created Allah? We ask you to be generous and provide an answer.

The Shaykh : Yes, the answer to this question has already been given by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), where he said:

People ask: Who created such-and-such? Who created such-and-such? Who created such-and-such? until they say: Who created Allah? If the matter reaches this point, let him say: Allah is One, the Eternal, He begets not, nor was He begotten, and there is none comparable to Him, and let him refrain from this.

إنّ الناس يتساءلون: مَن خلق كذا؟! مَن خلق كذا؟! مَن خلق كذا؟! حتى يقولوا: مَن خلق الله؟! فإذا بلغت الحال إلى هذه فليقل: الله أحد، صمد، لم يلد، ولم يولد، ولم يكن له كفؤاً أحد، وليكف عن هذا

Yes.
