Arabic hadith text

وَحَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلاَنَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْمُؤَدِّبُ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ يَأْتِي الشَّيْطَانُ أَحَدَكُمْ فَيَقُولُ مَنْ خَلَقَ السَّمَاءَ مَنْ خَلَقَ الأَرْضَ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ بِمِثْلِهِ وَزَادَ ‏"‏ وَرُسُلِهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Mahmud ibn Ghailan narrated to us: Abu al-Nadr narrated to us; Abu Sa'id al-Mu'addib narrated to us, from Hisham ibn 'Urwa, through this chain, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Satan comes to one of you and says, Who created the heaven? Who created the earth? He replies, Allah. Then he mentioned the rest in similar terms, adding the words and His messengers.
