What is the refutation to someone who claims that using the word "attribute" (sifah) for Allah the Exalted is an innovation (bid'ah), restricting its permissible use to Surat al-Ikhlas, and basing his argument on the fact that it is not found in the Qur'an and Sunnah, and that "every innovation is a misguidance"?

The agreed-upon Hadith, which narrates that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, sent a man on a military expedition, and this man used to conclude his recitation in prayer with Surat Al-Ikhlas. When asked about the reason for this, he said: "Because it is the description of the Most Merciful, and I love to recite it." The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, then said: "Inform him that Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, loves him." This clearly indicates that Allah Almighty possesses attributes, and the Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah (People of the Sunnah and the Community) use the term 'attribute' and ascribe it to Allah Almighty.
