A presentation of what the Book of Allah and the sunnah of His Messenger ﷺ indicate regarding Allah’s attributes: the Face, the two Eyes, and the two Hands. ⦗458⦘

Allah says:

“Yet there shall remain the Face of your Lord, full of Majesty and Honor.” [al-Rahman 55:27]

And He says:

“Everything will perish except His Face. To Him belongs all judgment, and to Him you will be returned.” [al-Qasas 28:88]

And He says:

“Whom I created with My two Hands.” [Sad 38:75]

And He says:

“Rather, His two Hands are outstretched; He gives as He wills.” [al-Ma'idah 5:64]

And He says:

“Sailing under Our Eyes.” [al-Qamar 54:14]

And He says:

“Build the Ark under Our Eyes and according to Our revelation.” [Hud 11:37]

And He says:

“The Hand of Allah is above their hands.” [al-Fath 48:10]

It is related from Ibn Abbas, in explanation of “Our Eyes,” that he gestured toward his two eyes. It is also related from al-Zubayr ibn al-Awwam that he was asked by the Face of Allah, so he said, “Give him, for he has asked by the Face of Allah, not by the face of created beings.” And it is related from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad that he was asked by the Face of Allah, and he said, “He who turns down such a request will not prosper.”
