Bismillah It is mentioned in the Hadith that a delegation from Yemen came to the prophet (PBUH), and asked him:

"O Allah's Apostle! We have come to ask you about this matter (i.e. how creation began)".

The prophet understood that this question needs an answer in order to prevent any misinterpretations resulting from vain desire or Satanic thoughts, so he said:

"First of all, there was Allah, and there was nothing before Him,

The first thing that Allah created was the pen

and He said to it 'Write'.

The pen asked, "O my God...'What shall I write?'

Allah said, 'Write (the) fate (of everything).' So the pen wrote everything that shall be from that moment until judgment day.

and He wrote everything in "Al-Thikr" (the tablet)

and then He created the Heavens and the Earth."

Quran 21:30 says

"Have not those who disbelieve known

that the heavens (universe) and the earth were of one piece,

then We parted them,

and we made every living thing of water?

Will they not then believe?"

[Al-Qur'an 79:30] "And we have made the earthegg shaped".

(The Arabic word Dahaha means egg shaped. It also means an expanse. Dahaha is derived from Duhiya which specifically refers to the egg of an ostrich which is geospherical in shape, exactly like the shape of the earth. the proof that dahaha in this context means egg-shaped is given in Sahih bukhari, volume 9, book 87 , hadith no. 141.) Quran 51:47 says

"And the heaven We created with might, and indeed We are (its) expander."

Al-Qur'an 41:9-12 "Say: Is it that ye deny Him Who created the earth in two periods (epoch)? And do ye join equals With him? He is the Lord of (all) the Worlds; He set on the (earth) mountains standing firm, High above it, and bestowed blessings on the earth, and measured therein all things to give them nourishment in due proportion, In four periods(epoch), in accordance with (the needs of) Those who seek (sustenance)." Moreover, He Comprehended in His design the sky, and it had been (as) smoke. He said to it and to the earth. "Come ye together, willingly or unwillingly. They said: "We do come (Together), in willing obedience." So He completed them as seven firmaments in two periods(epoch) and He assigned to each heaven its duty and command and We adorned the lower heaven with lights, and (provided it) with guard. Such is the decree of (Him) the exalted in might, full of knowledge."

... so this means that the earth and it's mountains, water, etc were completed in 4 periods. And the seven heavens in 2 periods. 4 + 2 periods is 6 periods. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

when you do not understand what eternal means or if it is possible that there was nothing before God.,

you can think of the numbers:

under the zero 0, it goes from -1 to -2 to NO Beginning

(do you know the first (or you also can say the last number) under the zero)

and above the 0 it goes from 1 to 2 t No END

(do you know the last numeber above the zero (0)??? answer there is no last number)

conclusion: We see that numbers have NO BEGINNING and NO END, just like Allah (God) swt)

Volume 4, Book 54, Number 416:

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah's Apostle said, "When Allah completed the creation, He wrote in His Book which is with Him on His Throne,

"My Mercy overpowers My Anger."

The Qur'an makes two claims: that Allah took 6 days for creation and that Allah took 8 days for creation.
