Explanation of walking and coming in the attributes of Allah and the hadith of hurrah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, you mentioned, may Allah preserve you, that Allah the Exalted does not walk and does not run, in the hadith

The Shaykh:
The meaning of the hadith is not that He walks and runs; that is not taken from the hadith. As for negating walking for Allah, that requires other evidence. Yes.

The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.

The Shaykh:
Also, walking is among the attributes of humans. It has not come that Allah walks, but it has come that Allah comes. It has come that Allah comes on the Day of Resurrection to judge between the people, and He comes, Glorified and Exalted is He, in a manner befitting Him, Glorified and Exalted is He.
