As-Salāmu Alaykum
There are a few questions I have been wondering regarding about.
1. Why have the theologians categorised Allah Most High's Attributes? If there was no need, wouldn't it be better to leave them?
2. If we believe that there is no taqlīd in aqīda, why didn't the noble Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) ask people why did they believe?
3. Is it permissible to attribute Mukhālafat li al-Hawādith and Qiyām bi an-Nafs to Allah Most High when it is not mentioned in the Qur'ān and Hadīth?
4. Is there any textual proof that Allah Most High transcends time and space?
5. If it is obligatory to know all these 13 Attributes, why didn't the noble Prophet (May Allah bless him and grant him peace) teach them all to his companions (May Allah be well pleased with all of them)?
I realise that perhaps I sound rather argumentative and aggressive, but please be aware, Shaykh, that rudeness is not my intent so forgive me. Also, Jazak Allah for answering all my previous queries.

Mohsin
