Did the disbelievers of Quraysh disbelieve in all the names and attributes?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Did the disbelievers of Quraysh deny the oneness of the names and attributes? Because some scholars said... they only denied this name...

The Shaykh : Yes

The questioner : ...they used to affirm

The Shaykh : They denied some of the names; some of the names. They denied al-Rahman (the Most Merciful) to the extent that in the Treaty of al-Hudaybiyyah
When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said to the scribe, "Write: In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy," they said, "We do not know what al-Rahman is." لما قال النبي صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم للكاتب اكتب بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم قال لا ندري ما الرحمن
they used to say, "There is no al-Rahman except the al-Rahman of al-Yamamah"
So the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Write: In the name of your Lord." فقال الرسول عليه الصلاة والسلام اكتب باسمك اللهم
, just as they proposed the envoy of Quraysh. Yes.
