What is the authenticity of the Hadith: "O My angels, and O inhabitants of My heavens, I have not created a built heaven, nor a stretched out earth, nor a shining moon, nor an illuminating sun, nor a revolving orbit, nor a flowing sea, nor a sailing ship, except for the love of these five who are beneath the cloak"?
This report is baseless, a fabrication and a lie of the Shi’a. They exaggerated by saying: “Were it not for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, the celestial spheres would not have been created. Were it not for Ali, the Prophet would not have been created. Were it not for Fatimah, Ali would not have been created.” Sheikh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah was asked about the authenticity of a similar : “Were it not for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, Allah would not have created a Throne, nor a Footstool, nor an earth, nor a heaven, nor a sun, nor a moon.” He replied that it is a statement whose author is unknown and is not a hadith from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, neither authentic nor weak, and has not been transmitted by any of the scholars of hadith.
