Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: What did the author (may Allah have mercy on him) mention in his statement that the attributes are body, accident, and limit? He says: What did he mention of these matters in his book? He says: What is the position of the Salaf regarding these descriptions?
Answer:
They reject them. They reject the substance and the accident and the like of that. They use the words of the Book and the Sunnah. They never use the word substance or accident. They use the words of the Book and the Sunnah, and that is what the Salaf of the Ummah did. Yes.
