Ibn Baz (1910-1999) the Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia wrote: (Their Sky) God has (i) a physical body (al-jism), (ii) He is physically sitting on the sky, and (iii) He has limbs, hands, eyes, tongue, face and other body parts.... Ibn Taymiyyah (1263-1328), one of the founders of Salafism, described the physical characteristics of their Sky God as follows: (i) The Sky God needs (Meaning the God is not independent and not self subsistent) (ii) He is divisible (Meaning the Gods can be many, but ultimately it is one entity only - This belief is exactly identical to the belief of Christians and Hindus). (iii) He settles in a place. (iv) He has six directions - up - down - left - right - front - back. (Meaning, the Sky God has a physical body). The Sky God is sitting above the skies and his face is in a certain direction. (v) He has limitations; no one but he knows about it. Even his place (dwelling) has a limitation which is on the seventh sky. Thus the Sky God has two limitations of movements. (vi) He has a size (of his body). (vii) He must be creating continuously. He can choose what to create but he cannot choose whether to create or not. (Meaning, he is helpless, has no choice but to create continuously). (viii) He is not mixed with his creation but is sitting alone separately on the sky. (ix) He has two real eyes, two real hands, a real (human like) face and other limbs. His face and other limbs are known to him only. ... Dr. Zakir Naik the famous Salafi Missionary who runs a Salafi TV Channel "Peace TV", compares their Sky God with other Gods and tries to prove that their Idol God is the greatest of all.
