The answer

Allah, glory be to Him, is All-Knowing and All-Powerful over all things; nothing in the heavens or on earth can everEscape Him. His power is absolute, and His will is complete, and He is the Creator of all things by His power. As for that which is inherently impossible, it is not a thing and does not fall within His power. The names and attributes of Allah are determined by divine revelation; He is described by knowledge, and it is permissible to inform about Him using terms like "comprehension" (dirayah) and "awareness" (ma'rifah), because the scope of informing is broader than that of description and naming.
