All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad is His Slave and Messenger.
is His Slave and Messenger.There is no Hadeeth with the meaning mentioned in the question. Allah Almighty created the earth for the benefit of all the children of Aadam, as He Says (what means): {It is He who created for you all of that which is on earth ….} [Quran 2:29], meaning: for the benefit of all people and not only the Prophet . The Prophet lived for a period of time then passed away, and had Allah created the earth exclusively for the Prophet it would have been pointless to create it before him and make it last after his death .
. The Prophet lived for a period of time then passed away, and had Allah created the earth exclusively for the Prophet it would have been pointless to create it before him and make it last after his death . As for the Hadeeth some people repeat: "had it not been for you (O Muhammad ) I (i.e. Allah) would never create the universe.." this is baseless and an egregious exaggeration.
) I (i.e. Allah) would never create the universe.." this is baseless and an egregious exaggeration. Regarding what the questioner mentioned: “Allah don’t have to born to Muhammad” () if by 'born' you mean creating Muhammad then it is an egregious speech and not befitting to use when referring to Allah Almighty, as none can force or oblige Him, The Most Exalted, to do anything against His Will. So, the questioner must be aware of such words.
