(19) باب فِي الْجَهْمِيَّةِ
Abu Yunus Sulaim b. Jubair, client of Abu Hurairah, said :
I heard Abu Hurairah recite this verse : "Allah doth command you to render back your trusts to those to whom they are due" up to "For Allah is he who heareth and seeth all things". He said : I saw the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) putting his thumb on his ear and finger on his eye.Abu Hurairah said : I saw the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) reciting this verse and putting his fingers. Ibn Yunus said that al-Muqri said. "Allah hears and sees" means that Allah has the power of hearing and seeing.Abu Dawud said: This is a refutation of the Jahmiyyah. (DE)
