Abdullah reported that a person from the People of the Book came to Allah's Apostle (may peace he upon him) and said:Abu al-Qasim, verily, Allah holds the Heavens upon one finger and the earths upon one finger and the trees and moist earth upon one finger and in fact the whole of the creation upon one finger and then say: I am the King. I am the King. And he (the narrator) further said: I saw Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) smiling until his front teeth became visible and then he recited the verse: "And they measure not the power of Allah with His true measure" (39:)

حدثنا عمر بن حفص بن غياث، حدثنا ابي، حدثنا الاعمش، قال سمعت ابراهيم، يقول سمعت علقمة، يقول قال عبد الله جاء رجل من اهل الكتاب الى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال يا ابا القاسم ان الله يمسك السموات على اصبع والارضين على اصبع والشجر والثرى على اصبع والخلايق على اصبع ثم يقول انا الملك انا الملك . قال فرايت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ضحك حتى بدت نواجذه ثم قرا { وما قدروا الله حق قدره}
