Incorrect reasoning and logic

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: My Shaitan whispers that “Can Allah turn into an animal?” I don’t know because he can do anything and yet if he would turn into a fox or something, it would contradict his attributes like he is nothing like creation. Can you please answer this question for me?

Bismillaah

A: This type of reasoning is against correct reasoning and logic. When we believe that Allah is full of majesty and greatness then it does not behove His majesty that He transforms from that state into any other state that is not worthy of His grandeur and majesty. It is like asking you whether you can eat faeces.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
