ATTRIBUTES OF ALLAH

The scholars said that it is obligatory upon every mukallaf to know thirteen Attributes of Allah. They are:
Existence, Oneness, Eternity, Everlastingness, Non-neediness of others, Power, Will, Knowledge, Hearing, Sight, Life, Speech, and Non-resemblance to the creation. The explanation of these attributes is as follows:

Existence: 
It is obligatory to believe that Allah exists and that there is no doubt in His Existence. He exists without a place. Time does not lapse on Allah.

Oneness: 
Allah is One without any partners. He is One in His Self, His Attributes, and His Actions.

Eternity: 
Allah is Eternal; there is no beginning to His Existence. He has existed since before the creation.

Everlastingness: 
Allah is Everlasting; His existence does not come to an end. He does not perish.

Non-neediness of others: 
Allah does not need any of His creations and they are all in need of Him.

Power: 
Allah has Power over everything.

Will: 
Everything that occurs in this world is by the Will of Allah.

Knowledge: 
Allah knows about all things before they occur.

Hearing: 
Allah hears all what is hearable, without an ear or any other organ.

Sight: 
Allah sees all what is seeable, without a pupil or any other organ.

Life: 
Allah is alive without a soul, skin, or heart. His Life is not similar to ours. He is alive and does not die.

Speech: 
Allah’s Speech is without a tongue or lip. His Speech is not in a language, Arabic or anything else. His Speech does not resemble the speech of the humans.

Non-resemblance to the creations: 
Allah does not resemble the creations.
