Does God possess absolute perfection in all aspects? What are the proofs of God's perfection, His names, and His attributes? Is His oneness and uniqueness in pre-eternity among the attributes of perfection? And does He have a form, two hands, and a face?

Allah Almighty possesses absolute perfection in all respects. The rational proof for His perfection relies on the principle of a fortiori reasoning from two angles: First: Every perfection established for the created being is, a fortiori, established for the Creator. Second: The bestower of perfection is most deserving of being described by it. Among the attributes of perfection firmly established for Allah Almighty are His Oneness and His Primality. The stance of Ahlus-Sunnah is to affirm the attributes of form, face, and hands mentioned in the sacred texts, without inquiring into their modality (takyeef) or likening them (tashbeeh).
