Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some people, when you tell them so-and-so is perfect, say, "No one is perfect except the Face of Allah." Is it permissible to attribute perfection to anyone other than Allah?

Answer:
It is not permissible to say so-and-so is perfect. Do not say so-and-so is perfect except Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes. This is an exaggeration regarding the person. Yes.
