Asking by Allah and Seeking Refuge in Him
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I ask you by Allah to present this question, for example, to the Shaykh. Some people, for instance, say, "I am by the face of Allah."
The Shaykh:
If he says, "I asked by Allah," do not ask your brother by Allah, and do not be harsh, but you should answer, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said. Do you know the message?
The questioner:
Some people say, "I am by the face of Allah," for example, fearing that his colleague might look at him, and so on. They said, "By the face of Allah." This phrase is something we have made up.
The Shaykh:
Seeking refuge by the face of Allah is like saying, "I seek refuge in Allah," "I seek refuge in Allah from His honor," "I seek refuge in Allah from His punishment." Seeking refuge by the lips is permissible.
The questioner:
Of course.
The Shaykh:
Worshipping by the windows is permissible.
