Ibn Abbas (ابن عباس) said: The first thing Allah created (خلق) was the pen (القلم). He ordered it to write. It said: What shall I write? He said: Write the fate (القدر). So it wrote what will happen from that day (اليوم) until the Day of judgement, then he created '''the Nun''' (النون, ''al-noon''), then he raised the water and created the heavens with it and laid the earth (الأرض) on (على) the back (ظهر) of the Nun, the Nun moved and so did the earth, so it was fixed down with mountains (بالجبال). | Ibn Abbas (ابن عباس) said: The first thing Allah created (خلق) was the pen (القلم).

The hadith (narration) by Ibn Abbas (collected by At-Tabari) is considered صحيح (sahih)<ref>http://hdith.com/?s=%D8%AB%D9%85+%D8%AE%D9%84%D9%82+%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%86%D9%88%D9%86+%D9%81%D9%88%D9%82+%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D8%A7%D8%A1%D8%8C+%D8%AB%D9%85+%D9%83%D8%A8%D8%B3+%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D8%B1%D8%B6+%D8%B9%D9%84%D9%8A%D9%87</ref>, that means authentic.

All Muslims should believe in sahih hadiths. And they should especially believe in hadiths where Ibn Abbas explains Qur'anic verses, because Muhammad (pbuh) made du'a for Ibn Abbas, so that Allah teaches him the interpretation of the Qur'an: | ||
{{Quote|{{Bukhari|5|57|100}}|Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas (raa): Once the Prophet (saws) embraced me (pressed me to his chest) and said, “O Allah, teach him wisdom (i.e. the understanding of the knowledge of Qur’an).”}} | |||
{{Quote|{{Bukhari|9|92|375}}|Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas (raa): The Prophet (saws) embraced me and said, “O Allah! Teach him (the knowledge of) the Book (Quran).”}} | |||
Denying the existence of the Islamic whale would mean that Muhammad's du'a was not accepted! | |||
His narration also explains why mountains are [[The Quran and Mountains|described as pegs]] in the Qur'an. It is because otherwise the earth would move on the back of the whale: | His narration also explains why mountains are [[The Quran and Mountains|described as pegs]] in the Qur'an.
