Affirming the Names and Attributes.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Can the affirmation of the Names and Attributes of Allah be general, or can it be detailed?
Answer:
Answer: No, the affirmation of the Names and Attributes is detailed according to the evidence. The Names of Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) are numerous and cannot be counted. Some of them Allah has taught us, and some He has kept the knowledge of to Himself (Glorified and Exalted is He). His Attributes follow His Names, so every one of the Names of Allah indicates an Attribute. Al-‘Alim (The All-Knowing) indicates knowledge, Al-Rahim (The Merciful) indicates mercy, Al-Qadir (The All-Powerful) indicates power, and so on. Every one of the Names of Allah indicates one of the Attributes of Allah. Therefore, His Names are the Most Beautiful Names, and they are not synonymous names with no meaning.
