Is the Noble Qur'an one of the attributes of Allah?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Peace be upon you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: Some people cite the hadith that Surat al-Baqarah and Surat Aal 'Imran will come on the Day of Resurrection like two clouds, arguing on behalf of their owner. They use this to argue that the Qur'an is not an attribute of Allah, but rather a created thing. They say: If it were an attribute of Allah, how could it separate from Him on the Day of Resurrection?
Answer:
The Qur'an is not in two hands. If you ask how it separated from Allah? Speech separates from the speaker. Your speech remains with you; does it not separate? Glory be to Allah, what is this erroneous talk? The Qur'an is the speech of Allah, and it was revealed by Him (Glorified and Exalted is He). It was revealed by Him to the people of the earth.
