Is there in the Hadith mentioned on the authority of Uqbah ibn Amir, and what Ibn Hajar stated, any evidence to affirm ears for Allah Almighty, by analogy with the affirmation of eyes?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The principle of Ahl al- wa al-Jama'ah regarding the affirmation of Allah's attributes is that they are tawqifiyyah (derived solely from revelation). Thus, they do not affirm anything for Allah except what He has affirmed for Himself, or what His Messenger (peace be upon him) has affirmed for Him, without tahreef (distortion), ta'teel (negation), takyeef (modality), or tamtheel (likening). The attribute of "ear" for Allah Almighty has not been mentioned in any sacred text, and therefore, it is obligatory to withhold judgment on it, neither affirming nor negating it.
