Explanation of the author's statement: "And His saying: (And to Him belongs the highest description in the heavens and the earth) and His saying, the Exalted: (Allah, there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer)."
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"And He said, the Exalted: [Ar-Rum 30:27]" What is the highest description? It is the most perfect attribute.
"And He said, the Exalted:[Al-Baqarah 2:255] to His saying: [Al-Baqarah 2:255]"
This is the Verse of the Throne, "and like His saying, peace and blessings be upon him:Sahih al-Bukhari 2992" What is it?
The student: Deaf.
The Shaykh : Mistake, "deaf" is a mistake, "deaf" without an alif. "" Here, the attributes are affirmed for Allah, Mighty and Majestic, "to other such verses and hadiths".
So it is now clear, my brothers, that the belief of this man who says that the way of the Salaf is safer and the way of the Khalaf is more knowledgeable and more just, that his belief that Allah has no attributes is a false belief. What indicates its falsity? Reason, the innate natural disposition, and the Shari'ah. And Allah knows best...
To Him belongs the highest attribute in the heavens and earth

Allah - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence

O people! Be merciful to yourselves (i.e. don't raise your voice), for you are not calling
أيها الناس اربعوا على أنفسكم فإنكم لا تدعونThe student: Deaf.
The Shaykh : Mistake, "deaf" is a mistake, "deaf" without an alif. "
Deaf or absent, but rather you are calling upon One who is Hearing, Seeing, and Near. Indeed, the One you are calling upon is closer to you than the neck of your camel.
أصمَ ولا غائبا إنما تدعون سميعا بصيرا قريبا إن الذي تدعونه أقرب إلى أحدكم من عنق راحلتهSo it is now clear, my brothers, that the belief of this man who says that the way of the Salaf is safer and the way of the Khalaf is more knowledgeable and more just, that his belief that Allah has no attributes is a false belief. What indicates its falsity? Reason, the innate natural disposition, and the Shari'ah. And Allah knows best...
