Continuation of the explanation of the author's statement: "Among the evidences from the Book is His saying, the Exalted: 'What prevented you from prostrating to that which I created with My Hands?'"

The Shaykh : And if not? What is it? Did Allah create Shaytan with His power? If the hand meant power, Shaytan would have said, "O my Lord, You created me with Your power." But he argued with a second, false argument. He used analogy against the text. What did he say? This is in addition to the material of creation that Iblis used as his argument. But there is one thing by which Iblis could have argued, which is that Allah created Adam with His Hand. This is a distinction that was not for any of the created beings. All created beings were created by what? By the Word, "Be, and it is." But Allah, Mighty and Majestic, created Adam with His Hand until He fashioned him and breathed into him of His Spirit.
Now, the phrase "created with My Hands" is explicit that what is meant is that the thing by which He created is the hand. He did not say "I created with My two hands" so that we would say the hand means the Self, as in His saying because here He attributed the creation to Himself and then made the created thing by His hands, so He said This verse is not like His saying because "what our hands have produced" is like His saying , so the meaning is "what We created." But in this case, He attributed the creation to Himself and then said "with My Hand."
And among the evidences from the Sunnah is the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), hmm?

The questioner : ...

The Shaykh : We will come to it, if Allah wills.
