Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. He says: What is your opinion of this phrase: "Allah, Glorious and Majestic is He, is not described as male or female"?
Answer:
This is an invalid statement, and it is not permissible to speak in this manner. We are doubting what Allah and His Messenger have affirmed, and we are doubting on behalf of His Messenger. May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. We do not attribute to Allah anything except what Allah and His Messenger have negated, and we do not negate anything except what Allah and His Messenger have affirmed, and we do not doubt what Allah and His Messenger have affirmed.
