Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The student: ...in the tafsirs?
The Shaykh : This is Ibn Hajar (may Allah have mercy on him) in his commentary on al-Zamakhshari's tafsir, tracing the hadiths. He says that its chain of narration is very weak. And in the books of the brothers from the Islamic University, they wrote a research paper on this, clarifying that this story is a lie and false.

The Shaykh : We do not divide this, if Allah wills, by tawhid (the oneness of Allah). Tawhid is on Monday, if Allah wills.
