What is the ruling on denying the attributes?

The questioner : We are attaching the audio for these issues. What is it? It is attaching the issues of the attributes to these issues. He says that there is also disagreement in these issues. Which ones? The rule was that there was disagreement in some of the issues of the intellect, but there is no disagreement in these. Are they? These issues are like the issues of seeing the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) or seeing him with his heart. Who is attaching the issues of the attributes? He says that there is also disagreement in the attributes. Why do you make it like this?

The Shaykh : This is a difference between this and that. The attributes are in the sense of generality, meaning that we do not affirm the attributes absolutely, like the Mu'tazilah, or we do not affirm what the intellect indicates. This is an unsound method. First, it is denied because it contradicts the method of the Salaf. Second, this overturns the creed entirely, to the intellect, that there are no attributes absolutely. There is a difference between saying there are no attributes and saying whether she saw him with her heart or with her eyes. This is a partial issue, and the disagreement is only in the attribute of this specific issue.
