Question:
The Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, says: Some interpret the statement of the Exalted,
Yes. [We are] Able [even] to proportion his fingertips.بَلَىٰ قَادِرِينَ عَلَىٰ أَن نُّسَوِّيَ بَنَانَهُ
[Al-Qiyamah 75:4]
, as referring to the fingerprint that exists now, and that each person has a fingerprint on their thumb that differs from all others. What is the validity of this matter?

Answer:
I know this is conjecture and there is no evidence for it. This is conjecture with no evidence for it. The exegetes, the leaders of exegesis, the scholars, and the mountains of memorization did not mention this. This is from the later scholars. Yes.
