Is it permissible for a person to use gestures to represent the attributes of Allah when speaking about them?

Question : May Allah keep you safe. The questioner asks: Is it permissible for a person to use gestures to represent the attributes of Allah when speaking about a hadith, such as when the speaker mentions the hadith about the heart of man, and points with his fingers to the listeners during his speech? What is the criterion in this matter? And may Allah reward you with good.

Answer : The criterion in this matter is that we do not use physical gestures to represent the attributes of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) except where there is an explicit text. Furthermore, if we fear fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) from using gestures based on what came in the text, it is not obligatory, because the meaning is clearly understood without the gestures without a doubt. If we fear that the common person, if we use gestures for him, will imagine a physical representation and liken Allah to His creation, then this is a harm, so be aware of it and stay away from it.
As for the one who uses gestures for the statement that the hearts of the children of Adam are between two fingers of the fingers of the Most Merciful in His hand, by saying "like this" for example, or something similar, this is not permissible. Because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said "between two fingers" and did not specify which two fingers they are that the hearts of the children of Adam are between. Therefore, it is not permissible to use gestures at all in this hadith. As for what came in the text regarding gestures in the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), "then He shakes them" and he shook his hand, or his pointing to his eye and ear when he said that Allah was All-Hearing and All-Seeing, this is restricted to the text, on the condition that there is no danger or fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) in doing so.
