Is it permissible to attribute a part to Allah (Mighty and Majestic)?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, why do we not attribute "the whole" to Allah...?

The Shaykh : Because if you attribute "the whole" to Him, there is no whole except for a part, and it is not permissible to attribute a part to Allah. "The whole" is not attributed except to that which has a part, and a part is not attributed to Allah. That is, you do not say, for example, "the hand of Allah is a part of Him." It is not permissible, neither "the whole" nor "a part."
