Names and Attributes of Allaah

When Allah spoke to the prophet pbuh on the night journey, what did Allah’s voice sound like? Was it like deep or high pitch? Are there any evidences to Allah’s voice or if Allah speaks like us with His mouth or is it in a different method such as through vibrations or telepathically?

Is it Kufr that some Muslims say that Allah CANNOT die or CANNOT oppress, as Allah says He is All-Capable?

They say that rather one should say “He DOES NOT oppress and not that He CANNOT because He can oppress.”

ANSWER: Allah can’t die as this defies being God, and He Himself told us that He doesn’t oppress because He made that prohibited upon Himself. Allah is capable of everything that is possible but not what is not possible. If someone uses this logic and says that Allah is capable of doing anything, so can […]

I have a book that has Allah’s name, meaning and different application, for eg Al-Muqit, below the name is written that who ever recites the name into glass of water, and give the water to a bad mannered child to drink, he will have good manners. Same is with all the names, so is it an innovation?

Allah, The Almighty, is not like anything we know of! It is not permissible to describe Allah with any kind of attributes unless He or His Messenger has described Him with. Sadness can’t be attributed to Allah.

These verses are muhkamat. We know what it means and it has a meaning that all people understand but we don’t know the “how” of such attributes and hence we believe in it as it is.
