Refuting those who deny the seeing of Allah in Paradise by the consensus of the Companions.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : We know the consensus of the Companions because the Companions read the Qur'an and read the hadiths, and not a single word came from them that contradicts what is in the Qur'an. So if we did not know that, what would it be? They are in consensus, because if there had been disagreement among them, they would have mentioned it. For example, did anyone from the Companions deny the seeing of Allah (Mighty and Majestic)? It never came. So if it did not come, and they were reciting the Book and reading the Sunnah, we know that they are in consensus on what the Book and the Sunnah indicate. Is that clear, everyone? And take this as a rule with you for the rest of the attributes, the attributes of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), the rest of the attributes of Allah mentioned in the Book and the Sunnah; the Companions are in consensus on them, because nothing contradictory came from them. So take it as a rule that will benefit you in debating the people of distortion and denial of the divine attributes. A thing is mentioned by its like. And last night we stopped at something where we said that we would repeat the speech on it in the coming night, which relates to the attributes. Do you remember it? What is it?
The student: ... .

The Shaykh : No, regarding the attributes. Rest. The last issue we spoke about yesterday, here.
The student: ... .

The Shaykh : Rest. In any case, this is a side of it. What is it?
The student: ... .

The Shaykh : No, no.
The student: Is it permissible to pray behind one who says that Allah is everywhere?

The Shaykh : No, okay, my brothers.
