a)MakingTaweel(false interpretation) of the texts ofthe Names and Attributes of Allah from theirapparent meaning, like interpreting the Face tomean His Essence, and His Hands to mean HisGenerosity.b) Making Tafweed (leave the meaning to Allah)of the Names and Attributes of Allah to Him. So,they say, 'Allah alone Knows what it means,'along with their belief that they are not to beaccepted upon their apparent meaning.The first group known to have denied the Names and Attributes ofAllah were some Arab pagans about whom Allah revealed, “Thushave We sent you (O Muhammad) to a community before whomother communities have passed away, in order that you might reciteunto them what We have inspired you, while they disbelieve in theMost Beneficent (Allah).” [Soorah ar-Ra'd (13): 30]The reason behind the revelation of this verse is that when theQuraysh heard the Messenger of Allah mention (Allah with theName) Rahman (the Most Beneficent), they denied it. So, Allahrevealed, “...while they disbelieve in the Most Beneficent (Allah).”Ibn Jareer mentioned that it was during the treaty of Hudaibiyah,when the writer began to put into writing the treaty between theQuraysh and the Messenger of Allah, he started with, 'Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Raheem' (In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, theMost Merciful).

What evil predecessors forevil successors...!A RebuttalThey can be rebutted is many different ways:1. First Approach.Allah, the Exalted, affirmed for HimselfNames and Attributes, and His Messenger too affirmed for Him.Denying them for Allah or denying some of them is denying whatAllah and His Messenger have affirmed. This implies contradictingAllah and His Messenger.2. Second Approach.The existence of some attributes inthe creation and some names being used by them does not implyresemblance between Allah and the creation. Because the Names andAttributes of Allah are special to Him, and the Names and Attributesof the creation are particular to them. Just like Allah has an existence,- 76 -
