As salamu alaykum wr wb. Respectfully. I need assistance of someone who speaks Arabic fluently. Can you tell me what The God means in 57:29 where it says:So that the followers of the Scripture should know that they have no power over God's grace, and that all grace is in God's hand. He bestows it upon whomever He wills. God is Possessor of Infinite Grace. The thing in the bold. God doesn't have a hand, right, but can someone who speaks Arabic better then me, tell me, what doe sit say in Arabic and maybe i'll understand it then. Thanks and may The Almighty God stops the war in the Middle East. As salamu alaykum wr wb. |

Lower for them the wing of kindness and humility and say, "My Lord! Bestow upon them Your Mercy as they raised me since I was little." |

Ahmed, using your logic, doesn't this verse say that kindness and humility have wings? |
phoenix1 wrote: |
Nowehere else is it mentioned that kindness and humility have wings, so this must be taken literally. |
phoenix1 wrote: |
OK. Well said, I must say.
But I still can't see why "God's hands" can't be taken figuratively. |

just a question, are you sure that the arabic you learned is the same as the language in the Quran? |

Then I feel you have read these verses in the Quran "The Jews said: Allah's Hand is tied.' May their hands be tied and may they be accursed for the [blasphemy] they utter. Rather, both His Hands are widely outstretched; He gives and spends as He pleases." (al-Ma'idah 5/64) "What kept you (Iblis) from falling prostrate before that which I have created with My Hands." (Sad 38/75) وَقَالَتِ الْيَهُودُ يَدُ اللّهِ مَغْلُولَةٌ غُلَّتْ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَلُعِنُواْ بِمَا قَالُواْ بَلْ يَدَاهُ مَبْسُوطَتَانِ يُنفِقُ كَيْفَ يَشَاء وَلَيَزِيدَنَّ كَثِيرًا مِّنْهُم مَّا أُنزِلَ Brother i know very little Arabic, but since I had been to few Arabic classes learnt something there, the Arabic word in blue which is Yad is Hands. The verse is 5-64, But remember the hands are not like the hands of human, as Allaah is told in the Quran that Allaah is incomparable to all the created things. |

Well, let me explain Allaah is mentioned in the Quran Al samieun Basseer.
That Allaah is All hearer and All seer. That means to our limited knowledge Allaah has ears and eyes which are present in his creation. |

But this is uncomparable to us. For suppose i cannot hear someone in US forget US 1 km from my home place I cant hear, but Allaah is mentioned in the Quran that Allaah can hear the fall of a leaf and Allaah can hear footstep of an ant. |
Quote: |
Well Allaah has this attributes mentioned in the Quran, but no way comparable to the creation. Allaah encompassess all knowledge and we cant encompass that. |
