Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : In reality, there are two points by which every matter involving figurative interpretation is refuted. We referred to them in the book Sharh Lum'at al-I'tiqad, which is a concise book. The point is that every instance of figurative interpretation is refuted on the grounds that it contradicts the apparent meaning of the text and the consensus of the Salaf. This applies to every instance of figurative interpretation regarding the two hands, the two eyes, the leg, the foot, or anything else. If any person distorts these attributes, we first refute him by stating that it contradicts the apparent meaning of the text and the consensus of the Salaf. Then, there may be specific points applicable to certain distorted attributes by which they are also refuted. Yes.
