Can We Attribute An Ear To Allah? by Lukgaf(m): 7:24am On Dec 06, 2019
Praise be to Allah.

Firstly:

The basic principle of Ahl as-Sunnah wa’l-Jamaa‘ah in affirming the divine attributes is that they affirm for Allah, may He be exalted, what He affirmed for Himself, or His Messenger (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) affirmed for Him, without resorting to an interpretation that differs from the apparent meaning, without denying the divine attributes, without asking how they are, and without likening these attributes to any of Allah’s creation.

To sum up: the attributes of Allah, may He be exalted, are tawqeefi (something which is based on revelation [and not open to ijtihaad]), and there is no room for reason in this regard. So we do not affirm for Allah, may He be exalted, any attributes except those that are affirmed in the Qur’an and Sunnah. Imam Ahmad (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Allah cannot be described except in the terms in which He described Himself or His Messenger described Him, and that cannot go beyond what is mentioned in the Qur’an and hadith. End quote from al-Fatwa al-Hamawiyyah (p. 271).

Secondly:

This attribute, the “ear”, cannot be affirmed unless there is a religious text [Qur’an or sound hadith] to support that, and we have no report that affirms it, so we must refrain, and it is not permissible to affirm this attribute for Allah, may He be exalted.

Shaykh al-Barraak says: With regard to that for which there is nothing at all to deny it or affirm it, whether that be on the basis of a religious text [Qur’an or sound hadith] or an implied meaning or what is necessarily understood, we should refrain from discussing the matter.

One example of that is the ear, with regard to Allah, may He be exalted. This is one of the matters concerning which we must refrain from discussion and neither deny or affirm it, because we have nothing to confirm it, either on the basis of a religious text [Qur’an or sound hadith] or an implied meaning or what is necessarily understood.

End quote from at-Ta‘leeq ‘ala al-Qawaa‘id al-Muthla (96).

And Allah knows best.

Any names/attributes not found in the Qur'an and Sunnah as being ascribed to Allah should be done away with.

Allah ascribes sight and hearing to himself. Nothing is similar to Allah and He is attributed with Hearing and Sight

You're speaking from the position of ignorance and maybe illiteracy and stupidity. Even the bible says "pray unceasingly" (1 Thessalonians 5.17). The Quran says Allah created humans solely to worship Him. You are also definitely wrong to say muslims pray 5 times daily. In fact, good muslims go beyond the prescribed 5 daily salats.

Actually allah originally wanted 50 prayers a day until MooHaMad begged alla to reduce it to 5.

This actually calls alla's intelligence into question because if muslims were to have prayed 50 times a day as alla planned, they simply wouldn't have time to do anything else.

A typical muslim prayer from ablution to sojood can last between 20 to 30 minutes. Multiply 30 minutes by 50 times and you'll see how unreasonable alla's request for 50 prayers a day was. The fact that it took an ordinary MooHaMad who was not an educated man to point out this error to alla, is conclusive evidence that alla cannot be a real god.

madd ooooo grin grin grin

First, I'm a freelancer, I work from home.

TheExecutioner:

You mean the same Adam and Eve story that your crookran plagiarised? grin

God created every human being, including Adam and Eve with a freewill and a duty to resist temptation. If Adam and Eve failed in their loyalty to God, how did that become God's fault? If I employ you as my gateman and you connive with armed robbers to rob my residence, who is guilty in the eyes of the law and who will go to jail?

Answer honestly how! grin

By your "intelligent" thinking, God shouldn't have created any human being at all.


Does Adam and Eve have free will before they ate the apple or after they ate the apple their eyes opened?
Wasn't your God omniscient to know the future? and just create them on earth instead allowing them to be tempted before sending them to the earth.
