Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"And likewise, praising Him by mentioning His attributes *** and glorifying Him at all times"
Praising whom? Allah. If he says "I praised Allah," it means he repeated His praiseworthy attributes, as indicated by the hadith إذا قال الإنسان : الحمد لله رب العالمين قال الله تعالى : حمدني عبدي فإذا قال: الرحمن الرحيم قال أثنى علي عبدي When a person says: "Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds," Allah the Exalted says: "My servant has praised Me." And when he says: "The Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy," He says: "My servant has praised Me."
"And for that reason, He made the most knowledgeable of His creation the most aware of them *** regarding His attributes, the one who brought the Qur'an"
He made the most knowledgeable of His creation the most aware of His attributes, and he is the one who brought the Qur'an. By this, he means Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).
"And He has attributes that none can enumerate besides Him *** not from any"
angel among you, nor from the angels?
The student: Angels
The Shaykh :"And He has attributes that none can enumerate besides Him *** not from any angel nor any human"
There is some length in it, in any case. Allah (Mighty and Majestic) opens up to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) attributes that no one can enumerate except the Messenger (may Allah's prayer and peace be upon him), and that is on the Day of Resurrection.
