And no one says regarding the Attributes of the Lord, the Most High, “How?” and “Why?” except for one who doubts about Allaah, the Exalted and Most High.

Shaykh Saalih as-Suhaymee hafizahullaah  said regarding this point, “No one will say, ‘Why (is that)?’ with regard to Allaah’s Attributes except one who doubts about the Attributes of Allaah, the Most High.  A person who is always afflicted with ‘Why (is this)?’ and ‘How (is that)?’ and this saying comes out upon the slips of his tongue, this person is in danger.  Indeed he is at the limit of danger.  And for this reason the Companions, when revelation came down to them, they believed in it with certainty and they attested to it.  And they did not ask ‘Why is this?’ and ‘How (is that)?’  Rather they submitted to everything which Allaah informed ofopenheartedly and accepting it fully.  So therefore they did not ask ‘Why?’ and ‘How?’”
