The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to gesture with the hand when mentioning the hadiths of the attributes, such as the hadith of the Qur'an?

The Shaykh:
Yes.

The questioner:
Is it permissible to gesture with the hand when mentioning the hadiths of the attributes, such as the hadith ?

The Shaykh:
No, what has not been transmitted is not to be called definitive attributes, and it is not permissible for you to add anything from yourself. You say, "This is an explanation," but you do not present it as it came. However, the hadith in which the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) gestured, saying "Hearing, Seeing," is a gesture indicating hearing; that is specific to that hadith, so you bring it as it was transmitted. As for adding something from yourself, no. Yes.
