The Possessor of Majesty and Honor: An Attribute of the Face or of the Lord?

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is there a contradiction between saying that "The Possessor of Majesty and Honor" is an attribute of the Face of Allah the Exalted, and saying that "The Possessor of Majesty and Honor" is an attribute of the Lord, peace be upon Him?

Answer:
This did not come in the recitation; rather, "Dhu" came in the nominative case, and it is an attribute of the Face. If it were an attribute of the Lord, it would have come in the genitive case, as it did at the end of the surah: So "The Possessor of Majesty and Honor" is an attribute of the Lord, of your Lord. As for "The Possessor of Majesty and Honor," it is an attribute of the Face. This is what they used as evidence that the Face is real, because Allah described it with Majesty and Honor. Majesty means greatness, and it is the honor by which He, Glorified and Exalted is He, honors His servants, or the honor that He deserves in terms of praise, gratitude, and thanks, and He is Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He. Yes.
