The Ash'ari Abu Hamid ibn Marzuq said: The creed of Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal, may Allah ta'ala raise his rank, about the ambiguous texts that have reached us from the book of Allah ta'ala and from what has been confirmed as an authentic sunnah, is similar to the creed of the imams of ijtihad and of the Salaf they would interpret in detail verses such as those whose apparent meaning is that God comes, that He would be with us, or that the Black stone would be His right hand on earth, and they would leave the knowledge of what they did not explain in detail to Allah ta'ala, while exempting Him from any resemblance to the creations.
