Question:
What is the authenticity of the hadeeth:
((Verily
Allaah created Aadam upon His appearance))?
...and
may Allaah reward
you with good.
Response:
This hadeeth is
authentic; So Allaah the Mighty and Majestic created
Aadam upon His appearance,
with hearing, sight, speech, with a face, hands,
eyes and feet. And this does not mean he resembles
Him, as Allaah the Mighty and Majestic says:
{There
is nothing like unto Him}, Soorah ash-Shooraa, Aayah 11
...and
also:
{And
there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him}, Soorah al-Ikhlaas, Aayah 4.
Just
as the scholars of the Sunnah such as Ahmad ibn Hanbal
and others have said.
