THE QUR'AN AND THE SUNNA

Sources of His Attributes:

All that we have mentioned about Allah's attributes, whether briefly or in detail and affirmatively or negatively, is based on the book of our Lord (the Qur'an) and the traditions of our Prophet. It also agrees with the practice of the previous generations of Muslims and the rightly guided scholars who came after them.

We believe it is obligatory to take the texts of the Qur'an and the prophetic traditions conceding Allah's attributes at their face value and to interpret them in a way that is suitable to Almighty Allah. We reject the practice of those who twist the meanings of these texts and understand them in a way that was not intended by Allah and His messenger.

We also reject the practice of those who make them devoid of their meanings as conveyed by Allah and His Messenger. Finally, we reject the approach of those who exaggerate, who gave them a physical interpretation that makes Allah similar to some of His creatures.

Allah,, is a truth GOD.. We must belive Him(ALLAH) and do what HE ask. But normally, many people now a days had forgotten their responsibility.. alQuran and sunnah was left by our idole propet MUHAMMAD S.A.W. to us,people who belive ALLAH, to make our guideline in life. Because we know we will never guide our life ,we haven't ability to do that...
