Imam Maturidi's Views on Interpretation of Anthropomorphic Hadiths in the Ahl al-Stmnah Context

Öz

The idea of God is not resembled to anything in Islamic thought. Some verses of Quran and Hadith mention some features, attributes and actions of human being. These are to be understood by the concept of tanzih. In this article, Imam Maturidi’s views on (333/944d.) tashbih and tajsim (corporealism) about those verses and hadiths are analysed. 1-Accepting, through interpreting them, 2-Denying, when they conflict to other Quranic verses, reason,and tanzih, 3-Accepting as they are stated without interpretation. He evaluated these approaches according to textual expression. However, his followers preferred rather tawil methodology
