![]() Nice article on the book that Mawlana Hasan Jan had written about his life, published by Al-Qasim Academy. He also mentioned how he studied in Madina University under Shaykh Albani. Also mentions how he had sometimes debates with him on taqlid, on tarawih and ayat mutashabihat: http://www.farooqia.com/node/655 A short translation about the kayfiyya: Once he (Sh. Albani) said about the ambiguous verses. "Their meanings are well-known and accepted." So I said for example: I do not know the meaing of yad Allah, I am a non-Arab person, I know the meaning of the hand of a person or the hand of an animal, which means a body part, made of flesh, bone and leather. On which there is also hair, five fingers and nails. However, the kayfiyya (howness) of the hand (yad) of every person is different. So that is the only meaning I know of "yad." I do not know the meaning of yadullah, so please write for us the meaning of "yad Allah" So I can understand the issue. However, he was not willing to do so. From this we know that the ambiguous attributes can be explained linguistically, but their explanation and clarification can not be done with accepted meanings in the creation. If these attributes are affirmed for Allah with known meanings, anthropomorphism (tajsim) becomes obligatory, and we can't abandon tajseem because of the ignorance of the kayfiyya (howness). The howness remains different amongst people, but they all have bodiness (jismiyya) in common. |
