“O Ibn Abi Duwad, say in my ear"

Imam Ahmad was being punished, and its narrated:

تقدم إليه ابن أبي دؤاد، وقال له: يا أحمد قل في أذني القرآن مخلوق حتى أخلصك من يد الخليفة؛ فقال له الإمام أحمد: يا بن أبي دؤاد قل في أذني القرآن كلام الله وليس بمخلوق حتى أخلصك من عذاب الله عز وجل

ENGLISH:

"Ibn Abi Duwad came to him and said, ‘O Ahmad, say in my ear: ‘The Qur’an is created,’ so that I may save you from the hand of the Caliph.’ So Imam Ahmad said to him, “O Ibn Abi Duwad, say in my ear: ‘The Qur’an is the Speech of Allaah, it is not created,’ so that I save you from the punishment of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic.”

NEDERLANDS:

"Toen stapte Ibn Abi Duwad naar hem toe en zei: "O Ahmad! Fluister in mijn oor dat de Qur'an is geschapen zodat ik jou uit de handen van de Khaliefah kan verlossen!" Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal zei tegen hem: "O Ibn Abi Duwad! Fluister in mijn oor dat de Qur'an het ongeschapen Woord van Allaah is, zodat ik jou van de bestraffing van Allaah, de Verhevene, kan verlossen!"
