Is the one who says that Allah rested after creation a blasphemer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : If someone says that Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) created the heavens and the earth in six days and then rested, is he a blasphemer against Allah?

Answer : Why? Because first, you must answer the text that has come down in this matter, and Allah the Exalted said, "And no fatigue touched Us," in which Allah the Exalted negated fatigue from Himself. Second, he said that Allah the Exalted is deficient in this sunnah, which is a deficiency in His perfection.
