Question:
Does every instance of the word "hand" in the Qur'an mean strength? Because some people may understand that you are saying what the Asha'irah say?
Answer:
My brother, you did not understand what is in the verse. It does not contain "hand" (yad); it says "with hands" (ayd), meaning with strength. As for the hand of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), it is one of His attributes, an attribute of His. He did not say in the verse, "And the sky We created with a hand"; He said "with hands," meaning with strength. This is not one of the verses of the attributes, as the scholars have mentioned. One does not understand this; only an ignorant person who does not distinguish between the terms understands it. Yes.
