Of course you could ask your Muslim friend how he knows that. There idea of Allah is that he is so much higher than we that we cannot even conceive of how he is. I've seen one quote that states: "Whatever you think Allah is, he is not."
Thus, if your friend says that he conceives that Allah can create a rock that big, then he cannot do it.
