Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: In the saying of Allah
Vision perceives Him notلَّا تُدْرِكُهُ الْأَبْصَارُ
[Al-An'am 6:103]
, is there evidence for affirming the vision of Allah, even though it is a negation?

Answer:
Vision perceives Him notلَّا تُدْرِكُهُ الْأَبْصَارُ
[Al-An'am 6:103]
That is, perception does not encompass Him; its meaning here is encompassing Him. It does not encompass Him, and even if they see Him, they do not encompass Him,
but they do not encompass it in knowledge.وَلَا يُحِيطُونَ بِهِ عِلْمًا
[Taha 20:110]
