(The Denialists’ Isolation of the Texts and Their Accusation of Those Who Acted Upon Them as Likeners and Corporealizers) They isolated the speech of Allah and then His Messenger *** from that isolation, which is not concealment; they made its reality
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : He says:
"They isolated the speech of Allah and then His Messenger *** from that isolation, which is not concealment"
From that, meaning from arguing with the Book and the Sunnah
"They made its reality and its apparent meaning the *** explicit, clear disbelief and invalidity"
What is it? Listen
"They said, and its apparent meaning is likening and *** corporealization and comparison, far be it from the apparent meaning of the Qur'an"
This is from the words of Ibn al-Qayyim. "Far be it" — they say that the apparent meaning of the verses of the attributes is comparison, and there is no escape from that. They denied the apparent meaning of the statement of Allah the Exalted: that He has a face similar to the face of the created being. What is done before this apparent meaning? Say, O people, "They denied it." Say, "He has no face," which makes the apparent meaning of the speech of Allah and His Messenger regarding Allah be comparison. Its meaning is that they made the Qur'an and the Sunnah have an apparent meaning of disbelief, because whoever likens Allah to His creation has committed disbelief, as Naim ibn Hammad al-Khuzai, the shaykh of al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him), said: "Whoever denies what Allah has described Himself with has committed disbelief, and whoever likens Allah to His creation has committed disbelief. And in what Allah has described Himself with, there is no likening, and what Allah has described Himself with is not likening"
"They made its reality and its apparent meaning the *** explicit, clear disbelief and invalidity
They said, and its apparent meaning is likening Allah to creation, ascribing a body to Allah, and comparing Allah to creation, may Allah be far from the apparent meaning of the Qur'an.

The Shaykh :"They said, and its apparent meaning is likening and *** corporealization and comparison" What do you have for comparison? Attach it to "far be it from the apparent meaning of the Qur'an", meaning it adds, it adds
"They said, and its apparent meaning is likening and *** corporealization and comparison" Good, and if we delete it, it is deficient.
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : No, they do not express it with likening; most of the theologians express it with likening, not comparison. It is better.
"They said, and its apparent meaning is likening and *** corporealization and comparison, far be it from the apparent meaning of the Qur'an"
It is a bit long, but if we delete it, it is deficient.
"They said, and its apparent meaning is likening and *** corporealization, far be it from the apparent meaning of the Qur'an" What contradicts what harms the one who said it?
