I asked Aba al-Hasan Ali b. Muhammad al-Askari عليهما السلام about the words of Allah Mighty and Majestic: “the entire earth will be His grip on the Day of Resurrection and the Heavens will be folded in His right hand” (39:67). He said: That is a rebuke of Allah Blessed and Elevated against the one who likens Him to his creation. Don’t you see that He said (in the same verse): “they have not estimated Allah His true estimate” (39:67). The meaning of this is (a reply to) when they said: ‘the entire earth will be His grip on the Day of Resurrection and the heavens will be folded in His right hand’. This is just as He Mighty and Majestic said: “they have not estimated Allah His true estimate” (6:91) when they said: “Allah has not sent down anything to a human” (6:91). Then He Mighty and Majestic declared Himself free of (possessing attributes such as) ‘gripping’ and ‘right hand’ by saying: “Glorified is He and Elevated above what they associate (with Him)” (39:67).
