Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
And I said to the Shaykh: The letter asks, is it correct to say that the action attributes are not a matter of theological school?
The Shaykh:
His attributes (Exalted and Majestic is He) are eternal, due to the eternity of His Essence. They are attributes that follow the Essence. Yes.
The questioner:
The place of youth.
The Shaykh:
This question: The attribute of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) is necessary to His Essence, except for the action attributes. The action attributes are those He does when He wills, whereas the intrinsic attributes are necessary to His Essence, such as hearing, sight, and speech.
