The Response to Those Who Say That the Hands Mentioned for Allah in the Qur'an Are Metaphorical

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
O Allah, send blessings and peace upon him, his family, and his Companions. O Allah, [we seek] Your meeting. Praise be to Allah. Yes.

The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the response to those who say that the Hands mentioned for Allah in the Qur'an are metaphorical?

The Shaykh:
This is invalid, meaning they are not literal Hands in the sense of actual physical Hands. This is the doctrine of the Jahmiyyah, may Allah protect us from that.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
