Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I will answer regarding the correct principle from the chapter on the attributes of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), which is that every attribute related to the will is an attribute of action.
Answer:
Yes, that is correct. Every attribute that is related to the will is an attribute of action that He does if He wills, (Glorified and Exalted is He). As for the face and the hand, these are essential attributes; they are not related to the will. These are essential attributes. Knowledge, will, and power are essential attributes, and being above is an essential attribute. As for istiwaa' (rising above the Throne), it is an attribute of action. Victory is an attribute of action, creation is an attribute of action. Yes.
