The ruling on attributing to Allah names that are not established in the texts
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, he says: There are those who say that there are names for Allah (Mighty and Majestic) that are not established in the texts, but are established by scholarly consensus, such as the name al-Kamil (The Perfect).
Answer:
This is a lie. This false speech is a lie. There are no names that are not established in the Book and the Sunnah, nor is there any scholarly consensus on this, because this is false and it is impossible to have scholarly consensus on this falsehood. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
So there is no disagreement among the scholars of knowledge on this matter that nothing is attributed to Allah except what He has attributed to Himself or what His Lord has attributed to Him. There is no disagreement. How can it be said that it is accepted? I seek refuge in Allah from knowledge. It is a lie against the scholars of knowledge that they agreed on falsehood. I seek refuge in Allah from people. One should be certain in these matters.

لا تجتمع أمتي على ضلال.So there is no disagreement among the scholars of knowledge on this matter that nothing is attributed to Allah except what He has attributed to Himself or what His Lord has attributed to Him.
