Sources of Establishing the Attributes According to the Asha'irah and the People of the Sunnah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. Do the Asha'irah establish the seven attributes in the same way as the people of the Sunnah, or does it differ from one attribute to another?

Answer:
No, they do not establish them in the same way as the people of the Sunnah. They establish them by the evidence of the Book and the Sunnah, whereas these people establish them by the evidence of reason according to them. So their sources of receiving [knowledge] are not the same as the sources of receiving [knowledge] of the people of the Sunnah and the community. We establish them because reason has established them, so their measure is the claim of reason. Yes.
