Does the saying, "Allah Almighty resembles nothing of His creation in any of His attributes," mean that this includes beauty on both the partial and total levels, or beauty as a total attribute only? In other words, are Allah's creatures inferior to Him in every attribute He has affirmed for Himself, both totally and partially?

Allah Almighty's attributes do not resemble the attributes of His creation. He is the Absolute Beautiful, none equals Him in His beauty. The beauty of creation is but an effect of His beauty, Transcendent is He. Allah is beautiful in His Essence, His Names, His Attributes, and His Actions. The beauty of His Essence cannot be described. When the people of Paradise see His beauty, they forget all the blessings they are in. It is not permissible to describe Allah using terms like 'part' and 'whole.'
