Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, some people call the people of the Sunnah "the Mujassimah." Is this usage correct?
Answer:
Yes, they are called the Mujassimah because they say that affirming the names and attributes necessitates ascribing a body to Allah. Ascribing a body to Allah is neither negated nor affirmed in the Book or the Sunnah; rather, it is an invented term. Yes.
