A book that discusses the Attributes of Allah

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by HadithAnswers.com

Is there any book in which we can find the Hadiths that discuss the Sifat (attributes) of Allah (according to Ash’ari madhab)?

I thought this could be useful against those who claim that all Sifat of Allah related by the As’aris are based on pure logic of later Ulama, & not from Rasulullah (sallallahu’alayhi wasallam) and the Salaf (Pious predecessors)

Answer

Imam Bayhaqi (rahimahullah) has a book entitled: ‘Al-Asma was Sifat’

It’s an excellent source for what you have queried.

This book has more than one edition. The edition with the footnotes of ‘Allamah Muhammad Zahid Al-Kawthari (rahimahullah) are very beneficial. It’s published by Al-Maktabatul Azhariyyah in Cairo.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best,
