Does Allah have a physical body at all?

00:00:02 --> 00:00:04

A physical body indicates dependency,

00:00:05 --> 00:00:06

and there is no indication

00:00:06 --> 00:00:09

that Allah has a physical body, and it's

00:00:09 --> 00:00:10

forbidden to believe that he has a physical

00:00:10 --> 00:00:12

body. Physical bodies

00:00:12 --> 00:00:15

are dependent on the matter they're composed of

00:00:15 --> 00:00:17

and on the location in which they rest.

00:00:17 --> 00:00:20

Physical bodies have limits, and Allah does not

00:00:20 --> 00:00:23

have a limit. Hence, a tajsim is an

00:00:23 --> 00:00:23

impermissible

00:00:24 --> 00:00:25

and heretical belief

00:00:25 --> 00:00:28

to say that Allah has a physical body.
