Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, you mentioned that the meaning of the saying of Allah the Exalted[Al-Ikhlas 112:4] is that He has no like or equal. How do you reconcile this with the statement that its meaning is that He has no companion?
Answer:
No, “He has no companion” is a different matter. How could He have a son if He did not have a companion? So it means a wife; “companion” means wife. As for “like” and “equal,” that is not a wife. Yes.
