Does the failure to affirm that Allah has two eyes, due to insufficient proof thereof, lead one out of Islam, knowing that there are Hadiths describing the Dajjal as one-eyed?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The Sunnis have unanimously affirmed two eyes for Allah Almighty, and their proof is that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said concerning the Dajjal: "Indeed, he is one-eyed, and your Lord is not one-eyed." And 'awarness' is the loss of sensation in one of the eyes. Al-Ash'ari narrated the consensus of the people of Hadith and Sunnah on affirming two eyes for Allah without 'kayf' (modality), citing the verse: "running before Our eyes" (Quran 54:14). And whoever does not have clear proof for affirming two eyes, and contents himself with affirming one eye for Allah, does not become a disbeliever thereby, but he would be mistaken.
