The Shaykh:
Yes.[As-Saffat 37:180] That is, purifying Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) from what the disbelievers, those who associate partners with Allah, and the atheists attribute to Him, and peace upon the messengers, because the messengers described Allah in a manner befitting Him and denied of Him what is not befitting Him. Peace upon the messengers for the soundness of what they said, free from blame and deficiency. The Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah have mercy on him) says: Yes.
