Shaykh Sālih Al-Fawzān حفظه الله writes while refuting Athiesm:
It is known by necessity that every event must possess a cause:
This is an issue that is instinctive and necessarily known, even to a child.
'Who beat me?’ If it is said to him: ‘Nobody has beaten you.'
His mind would never agree that the beating occurred without a Beater.
If he is told: ‘So-and-so beat you.'
He would cry until he is opportune to beat the person in revenge.
This is why Allah - the Most High - said:
“Were they created by nothing or are they themselves the creators?"
[Qur’an 52:35]
This is an restrictive sentence structure.
Allah mentions it, with a negating interrogative syntax in order to explain that all these antecedents, are necessarily known to everyone and that it is impossible to deny them.
He - the Most High - said:
“Were they created by nothing?”
Meaning, without a creator who created them, or they themselves created their own selves?
Both cases are false (and impossible).
So, it becomes clear that they have a Creator who created them and He is Allah-glorified is He, there is no creator besides Him.
Allah said:
“This is the creation of Allah. So show Me that which those (whom you worship), besides Him have created...”
[Qu'ran 31:11]
“Show me! What have they created of the earth?” [Qur’an 46:4]
“...Those whom you call besides Allah cannot create (even) a fly, even though they combine together for the purpose...”
[Qur’an 22:73]
“Those whom they invoke besides Allah have not created anything, but are themselves created.”
[Qur'an 16: 20]
“Is then He, Who creates as one who creates not? Will you not then remember?”
[Qur’an 16:17]
Despite all these repeated challenges, no one has ever claimed that he has created something.
Not even just a claim, not to talk of proving it.
So, it becomes clear that Allah, glorified is He, is the Sole Creator, possessing no partner."
