Allah has a Face

Allah has Hands

Allah has Eyes

Allah has Ears

Allah has mouth and Tongue[/quote]

[blue][font=Century Gothic][sub]•	We believe that Allah has a glorious and dignified face: &quot;There will remain the face of your Lord, majestic and splendid&quot; (55:27).

•	We believe that Allah has two generous hands: &quot;No, both His hands are wide open; He spends how He pleases&quot; (5:64); &quot;They do not esteem Allah with the esteem that is due to Him. The whole Earth will be His handful on the Day of Resurrection, and the Heavens will be rolled up in His right hand. Glory be to Him and exalted is He above that which they associate with Him&quot; (39:67).

•	We believe that Allah possesses two real eyes, because He said: &quot;And build the ark under Our eyes as We reveal&quot; (11:37). The Prophet, peace be upon him, said: &quot;His veil is light. Had He removed it, the sublimity of His countenance would have burnt all that His sight reached&quot; (Muslim and Ibn Majah). The Sunnites unanimously have agreed that He has two eyes. This is supported by the Prophet's saying about the Dajjal (the anti-Christ) that &quot;he is one-eyed and your Lord is not one-eyed&quot; (Bukhari and Muslim).

•	We believe that &quot;vision cannot perceive Him, but He perceives all vision. He is the Incomprehensible, the All-aware&quot; (6:103).

•	We believe that the believers will see their Lord on the Day of Resurrection: &quot;Upon that day some faces shall be radiant, gazing upon their Lord&quot; (75:22-3).

•	We believe that Allah has no equal because His Attributes are perfect: &quot;There is nothing whatsoever like unto Him. He is the All-hearing, the All-seeing&quot; (42:11). € We believe that &quot;no slumber or sleep seizes Him&quot; (2:255), because His life is perfect and eternal.

•	We believe that He does not do injustice to anybody, because His fairness is perfect.

•	We believe that He is not unaware of his servants' deeds, because He has perfect supervision and comprehensive knowledge.

•	We believe that He is capable of doing anything in the Heavens or in the Earth, because of His perfect knowledge and power: &quot;Indeed His command, when He desires a thing, is only to say to it 'Be' and it is&quot; (36: 82).

•	We believe that He is free from weariness and weakness, because of His infinite power: &quot;Surely, We created the Heavens and the Earth and all that is between them in six days, and no weariness touched Us&quot; (50: 38). [/sub]

However, we reject two concepts:

[sub]1) To say or believe that Allah's attributes are similar to those of his creatures; and

2) To say or believe that Allah's attributes are like such and such.
