The Sufi Ashari Maturidis claim that the prophet Mohammed was the
first thing created. However this is a lie the Allah created water first
then he created every living thing from water.
Therefore if Allah has created all living things from water as the
prophet indicted and Allah also stated, then the Prophet
Mohammed’s origin is in water like every other living thing. So this
means that water must have been created before the prophet or any
other living thing was.
Imam As-Suddi narrated in his Tafsir narrated from Ibn Abbas that
he said, “Allah the Exalted did not create anything before the water”.
In Bukhari, Bayhaqi, and ibn Al-Jaroud report from
Umran Ibn Haseen that the people of Yemen came to
Prophet Mohammed and said: O Prophet of Allah we came
to you to learn about our religion and to ask you about the
Beginning of this thing, how was it? So he replied: It was
Allah, and nothing else, and His Throne was on the water,
and He wrote in the Book all things and then he created
the heavens and the earth”.
Important point
The prophet said, “The first thing that Allah created was
the light of your Prophet, O Jabir”
However Shaykh Albaani said this hadeeth and other similar ones
are false in his al-Silsilah al-Saheehah (458).
