Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : ... ؟

The Shaykh : Yes, in the sense that He has always been and will always be described by them. They are indeed intrinsic attributes, but they are not descriptive attributes.

The people of figurative interpretation try to make these descriptive attributes into descriptive ones.
