00:00:00,180 --> 00:00:08,509
Summary of Sunni concepts

2
00:00:08,509 --> 00:00:12,470
Ash'ari interpretation of attributes

3
00:00:12,470 --> 00:00:20,469
The Ash'ari interpret the names and attributes of God as one of the seven attributes that they established for God through reason

4
00:00:20,469 --> 00:00:27,469
They are life, knowledge, ability, will, hearing, sight, and speech

5
00:00:27,469 --> 00:00:34,469
Most of what they do is interpret any other attribute other than those seven attributes

6
00:00:34,469 --> 00:00:38,469
Either by ability or by will

7
00:00:38,469 --> 00:00:42,469
If they do not find the interpretation acceptable, they resort to delegation

8
00:00:42,469 --> 00:00:50,469
That is, delegating the intended meaning of the attribute to God Almighty and ceasing to explain its meaning

9
00:00:50,469 --> 00:00:56,469
They justify this by claiming that God Almighty is above the resemblance of created beings

10
00:00:56,469 --> 00:01:02,469
According to them, exaltation comes in one of two ways: interpretation or delegation

11
00:01:02,469 --> 00:01:05,540
Their speaker says so

12
00:01:05,540 --> 00:01:12,540
And every text is an illusion or a simile or a metaphor or a metaphor for its purification
