Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"And this indicates" what? "It indicates that the attributes of Allah are perfection, as Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He, said:
For those who do not believe in the Hereafter is the description of evil لِلَّذِينَ لا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْآخِرَةِ مَثَلُ السَّوْءِ
[An-Nahl 16:60]
"
Allah is the Greatest. The worst description means the defect and the deficiency for those who do not believe in the Herein, as Allah described them by His saying:
They are not except like livestock إن هم إلا كالأنعام
[Al-Furqan 25:44]
What?
Rather, they are [even] more astray in [their] way. بل هم أضل سبيلا
[Al-Furqan 25:44]
So those who do not believe in the Herein have the worst description, whereas Allah, Mighty and Majestic, said:
To Him belongs the highest attribute in the heavens and earth وَلَهُ الْمَثَلُ الْأَعْلَى فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ
[Ar-Rum 30:27]
.
The description means the highest and most perfect description in the heavens and the earth, meaning that everyone in the heavens and the earth believes this, that to Allah belongs the highest description
And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise. وهو العزيز الحكيم
[Ibrahim 14:4]
.
The author said: "And the highest description is the most perfect description" So "description" means the attribute. The term "description" is used for what the author mentioned, namely the attribute. Among its usages is the saying of Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He:
Is the description of Paradise, which the righteous are promised, wherein are rivers of water unaltered مَثَلُ الْجَنَّةِ الَّتِي وُعِدَ الْمُتَّقُونَ فِيهَا أَنْهَارٌ مِنْ مَاءٍ غَيْرِ آسِنٍ
[Muhammad 47:15]
and so on. "The description of Paradise" means its attribute, and the intended meaning is not representation, because there is no one being represented and no one being represented by. Now, "the highest description" means the attribute, and "the highest" means the most perfect, but it is clear.
