Can God accommodate the heaven and the earth in an egg?


Abu Shaker Abdullah Desani one day came to Imam Jafar al-Sadeq and asked Imam various questions. One of his questions was: God is All-Powerful. Can He, if He wishes, accommodate the heaven and the earth in an egg?
Imam replied, "Desani! An egg is a big thing; don't you see that God has accommodated the heaven and the earth in the pupil of your eye...?"  

(Kashf al-Ghumma)
