Question

Why are there so much difference among the Scholars on these issues of Aqeedah?

Answer

All the finer and subtle transcendental issues pertaining to Aqeedah, Allah's Zaat and Sifaat – issues on which the Qur'aan, the Ahaadith and the Aathaar of the Sahaabah are silent, are products of the human mind. Thus, the opinions of the Scholars on such issues are essentially the products of their minds, not the products of Wahi. Differences are therefore natural and logical. Thus, the principle is always to find reconciliation between the conflicting statements of the senior Scholars of the valid Math-habs.
