As salamu alikum and hello!
I hope that this post today is beneficial to you, as this was something that I didn't know until I read it.
Explaining the ayat of the Quran, or the Hadeeth of the Prophet (sallallahu 'alyahi wassallam) with meanings other than their apparent ones, is also another way of lying upon Allah (subhanahu wa ta'alah)
Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) says:
"(Allah) said: 'O Iblees (Shaytan)! What prevents you from prostrating yourself to one whom I have created with both My Hands...'" [Saad (38): 75]
In the above Ayah, Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) is saying that He creadted Adamn with His Two Hands. Yet some Muslims try to explain "Allah's Two Hands" to mean His power. Who knows Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) better, Himself or these people? As Muslims, we have to believe in Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) as He describes Himself or as His Messenger (sallallahu 'alayhi wassallam) described Him. Therefore, if He (subhanahu wa ta'ala) says He has Two Hands, we must believe that. However, we must also believe, that they are not hands like ours.
He, the Sublime says:
"There is nothing like Him; and He is the Hearer; the Seer of all." [Ash-Shooraa (42): 11]
