The ruling on some people saying: “The power of Allah willed such and such”

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah protect you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: It is common on the tongues of some people to say, “The power of Allah willed such and such,” or “The care of Allah willed such and such.” What is the ruling on this statement?

Answer:
This is not permissible. It has been pointed out more than once that no actions are attributed to the attribute; rather, actions are attributed to Allah (Mighty and Majestic). One says, “Allah willed such and such” or “Allah intended such and such.” As for the attribute, nothing is attributed to it.
