Explanation of the author's statement: ". . . . . 2 - That it makes them indicative of likening Allah to His creation, as the Mushabbihah did.

The Shaykh :"The second is that it makes them indicative of likening Allah to His creation, as the Mushabbihah did", and is this a reality? Yes, it is a reality. The Mushabbihah said that among the names of Allah is al-Sami' (the All-Hearing), and among our attributes is also al-Sami' (the Hearing), as Allah the Exalted said: They said, if Allah is al-Sami' and the human is al-Sami', then it indicates that they are similar, similar. They use the names as evidence for what? For likening. They use them as evidence for likening. We say that any person who believes in the names of Allah as being indicative of likening is a Mushrik (one who associates partners with Allah), because the names of Allah only indicate meanings befitting Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He).
