The Ruling on One Who Denies the Attributes of Rising Above the Throne, Actions, and Exaltation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, if someone denies one of the three attributes—istiwa' (rising above the Throne), actions, or exaltation—is he considered a mu'atil (one who denies the divine attributes), and do we declare him to have exited the religion? A mu'atil.
Answer:
Yes, it leads to it; it leads to complete denial of the divine attributes. It is the beginning of denial of the divine attributes, and it develops and leads to complete denial of the divine attributes, as the poet (may Allah have mercy on him) mentioned to you. It develops and reaches complete denial of the divine attributes. As long as there is no command and no prohibition, no religion, and as long as one is in a state of idleness, you are a believer. Command, prohibition, and religion are all supplementary matters in his view. Yes.
