Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"Fifth: The hand that Allah attributed to Himself moved in a way that precludes the meaning being grace", who has the last edition, 1404? Do you have it? Yes, look, if we differed on something, let us know, we corrected it in it, "The hand that Allah attributed to Himself appeared"
The student: "in forms that preclude the meaning being grace"
The Shaykh : Yes, "appeared in forms that preclude the meaning being grace, or power", this correction we found more appropriate, hmm? Yes, yes, because the hand that He attributed to Himself moved in a way, this, even if it has a meaning, it is possible, moved means it appeared in a moved state, but it implies that it moved itself, and it did not move itself, so the correct thing is to say it appeared in forms that preclude the meaning being grace, or power "so it came in the wording of hand and palm", or not? It came in the wording of hand?
The student: Yes...
The Shaykh : Where is the hand?
The student: The hand of Allah...
The Shaykh : Yes, he said[Al-Ma'idah 5:64], likewise it also came in the wording of palm, hmm?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Likewise also "the affirmation of fingers for Allah the Exalted"
The student:
The Shaykh :Sahih Muslim 2655 And likewise came "grasping and shaking", grasping and shaking is done with the hand, like his saying all of this indicates that the meaning of hand is the real hand, do you have the tracing of the hadith? Hmm, yes, who narrated it?
The student: ... Mukhtasar al-Sawa'iq ... narrated by Muslim in forms with the wordingSahih Muslim 2787 and mention was made ... in the hadith of Ibn Mas'ud ...
The Shaykh : Good, he said: And these movements and the correct one and these? The last one "And these forms preclude the meaning being, by them, grace, or power."
The student: "in forms that preclude the meaning being grace"
The Shaykh : Yes, "appeared in forms that preclude the meaning being grace, or power", this correction we found more appropriate, hmm? Yes, yes, because the hand that He attributed to Himself moved in a way, this, even if it has a meaning, it is possible, moved means it appeared in a moved state, but it implies that it moved itself, and it did not move itself, so the correct thing is to say it appeared in forms that preclude the meaning being grace, or power "so it came in the wording of hand and palm", or not? It came in the wording of hand?
The student: Yes...
The Shaykh : Where is the hand?
The student: The hand of Allah...
The Shaykh : Yes, he said
Rather, both His hands are extended
بل يداه مبسوطتانThe student: ...
The Shaykh :
The seven heavens and the seven earths are in the palm of the Most Merciful like a mustard seed in one of our palms
السماوات السبع والأرضين السبع في كف الرحمن كخردلة في كف أحدناThe student:
The hearts of the people
قلوب العبادThe Shaykh :
the hearts of all the sons of Adam are between the two fingers out of the fingers of the Compassionate Lord
قلوب بني آدم - أو العباد - بين أصبعين من أصابع الرحمنAnd Allah grasps the heavens with His hand and the earth with the other hand, then He shakes them and says: I am the King
ويقبض الله سماواته بيده والأرض باليد الأخرى ثم يهزهن ويقول أنا الملكThe student: ... Mukhtasar al-Sawa'iq ... narrated by Muslim in forms with the wording
Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, will take in His grip the Earth on the Day of Judgment and He would roll up the sky in His right hand and would say: I am the Lord
يقبض الله تبارك وتعالى الأرض يوم القيامة ويطوي السماء بيمينه ثم يقول انا الملكThe Shaykh : Good, he said: And these movements and the correct one and these? The last one "And these forms preclude the meaning being, by them, grace, or power."
