What is Al-Azhar's doctrine regarding the Names and Attributes [of Allah], and is it the doctrine of Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah? And what is the correct and reliable book on the doctrine of the Names and Attributes?
The reliable books on the doctrine of Names and Attributes are those written according to the methodology of the Salaf, including: "Al-Aqidah Al-Tadmuriyyah" and "Al- Al-Hamawiyyah" by Ibn Taymiyyah, and "Al-Sawa'iq Al-Mursalah" by Ibn Al-Qayyim. Among contemporary books are: "Al-Qawa'id Al-Muthla fi Sifat Allah wa Asma'ih Al-Husna" by Sheikh Ibn Uthaymeen, and "Al-Asma' wa Al-Sifat Naqlan wa Aqlan" by Sheikh Al-Shanqeeti. Furthermore, Dr. Muhammad bin Khalifa Al-Tamimi has several valuable books in this domain, including: "Mu'taqad Ahl Al- wal Jama'ah fi Al-Asma' wal Sifat" and "Mawaqif Al-Tawa'if min Tawhid Al-Asma' wal Sifat".
