How do we call to the one who interprets the attributes of Allah the Exalted?

The student: This man interprets the attributes, so do you think that ...?

The Shaykh : No, this is a great error. I have seen some people who lack understanding — not knowledge — when they see a person they suspect of denying the elevation, the first thing they do is greet him: "As-salamu alaykum, how are you, where is Allah?" How? Does the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) start with people by saying "Where is Allah?" This is absolutely wrong. Explain the matter to him in a simple way, and do not debate him unless he opens the door. He is a Muslim, and the principle in Islam is safety. Do not debate him unless he opens the door, or unless you see that his mind is open to the issue and he is asking you for it himself. Then, and only then, begin. Goodness in calling and wisdom in calling are important matters. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not say to this slave girl: except for a reason that required it regarding this woman. And what did he say to the Bedouin who testified that he saw the crescent moon? He said to him: He did not say to him: "Where is Allah?" And Allah granted the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) wisdom to address every person according to what his condition requires.
