Question:
I say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, I find in myself doubts regarding likening Allah to creation, and I seek refuge in Allah from Satan the Exalted in prostration, in bowing, and in the final tashahhud, on my left three times, but Honorable Shaykh, I still suffer from these. Does this indicate that my heart is corrupt and that this is hypocrisy? And how do I get rid of this matter and these whispers?
Answer:
This is from Satan, this is from Satan, so you must do two things, or rather three things. First, seek refuge in Allah from Satan the Exalted. Second, reject these matters; reject them completely and do not think about them. Third, learn, my brother, you must read the words of the Salaf and the scholars regarding the names and attributes of Allah; you must read and reflect on them so that these matters are removed from you. Yes.
