Allâhu ta’âlâ has perfect Attributes that are not deficient. They are: hayât (to exist), ’ilm (to know), sem’ (to hear), basar (to see), qudrat (to be omnipotent), irâda (to will), kalâm (to say) and tekwîn (to create). These eight Attributes are called Sifât-i thubûtiyya or Sifât-i haqîqiyya. These Attributes of His are eternal. That is, they are not existences that came into being later. They exist separately from Himself. The Ahl-i Sunnat savants have stated so, so may Allâhu ta’âlâ reward them for their work! None of the seventy-two sects, but only the Ahl-i Sunnat could realize that Allâhu ta’âlâ had separate Attributes.
