The Meaning of Affirming the Wording in Isolation from the Meaning

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the meaning of the moderate group affirming the wording in isolation from the meaning?

Answer:
Because they are unable to deny the wording, and it is in the Qur'an. That is my intention. They are unable to deny the wording while it exists in the Qur'an, so they affirmed it in isolation from the meaning, because in their view, affirming the meaning would necessitate likening Allah to creation.
