Is the type of Allah's speech ancient?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: The commentator (may Allah have mercy on him) said, "And the type of speech is ancient." So, is Allah's speech described as ancient?

Answer:
The type, my brother, the type of speech is ancient. Allah has been speaking; there is no limit to the beginning of His speech. Who can determine that Allah began speaking from a specific point? There is no limit. This is an attribute belonging to Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He). So, its type is ancient, and its instances are newly created. Yes.
