To be fair , I didn ' t realise this topic would get so heated . I was just being midly hyperbolic . <| sep |> We don ' t interpret it . We accept the words , but we don ' t ask what the meaning is in the context in which it is put . Some scholars have done this , they ' ve interpreted his smile as his mercy , and his anger as his punishment , and other such things . We ask Allh to forgive them for this , because the early companions wouldn ' t speak about these things , so we stay quiet about them too . But some scholars have made such interpretations . That said , when Allh says he hears , we accept it . We don ' t ask how , this that , we accept that he is able to hear . Khalas . <| sep |> Why are there ears cut ? <| sep |> This is oddly satisfying
